Subject: [PATCH 12/13] Revert "UBUNTU: SAUCE: Guest OS does not recognize a lun with non zero target id on Vmware ESX Server"

This reverts commit 0a64e1866f999a1a10edd10eb4e929936fa26864.

This is an ancient patch we've been carrying from release to release.
It's believed it is only required with very old vmware.  Lets drop it for
Maverick and see who screams.
