I've started with a new "adv" driver for only the wide drivers, except the split the major changes over advansys.c are that the internal queueing is gone and it uses proper pci probing. If this driver works okay I'd like to finish the dma api conversion as a next step. Unfortunately I don't have advansys hardware myself (yet) so I need testers for it..
