This worked, but I didn't get any useful log output until I started
getting error 600 from the SCSI midlevel and errors from ext2fs.  I'm
going to try again, making sure that I have dmesg set as high as
possible, and see if I can get anything else.  Otherwise, is it time to
start scattering printk()'s around the mesh driver?
