Hi, the driver for this card seems to have missed out on one of the changes
to the SCSI layer between 2.2 and 2.4. Specifically, scsi_set_pci_device
now wants an entire SCSI host object, instead of just the pci_dev part.
Without the patch, we get a null kernel pointer dereference when the driver
is initialized. With the single-line update, the driver works again. I've
also included a patch to change an udelay loop into the equivalent mdelay
call for code readability purposes. These are both against 2.4.4; please
apply.
