Also, I've just noticed this:

                if re.match('^scsi_generic', f):
                    os.chdir(os.path.join(paths, f))
                    sg = os.path.basename(os.getcwd())

which is really crazy!  A utility function like this must not just use
chdir!  Is this really the best way of doing this ?

In the meantime this might be a better patch.  (NB: not tested.)

Ian.
