In patch-2.4.17-pre2, a nonsensical change was made in
linux/drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7xxx_linux.c . While apparently
harmless, it suggests to me that you had intended to fold in an
entirely different patch, and "missed".
Missed? That patch fixes a lethal bug.
I don't find a current maintainer for aic7xxx listed in MAINTAINERS.
It's listed in the aic7xxx sources, but the fix in question came to
Marcelo via Jens Axboe.
Franks a lot,
