The qla2xxx driver hasn't been submitted to Marcelo. For this reason
Red Hat puts it in drivers/addon and not drivers/scsi.

I think the qla1280 is important enough (core SCSI on several boxes)
that you should keep it around until it's synced with Marcelo.

But in general I agree with the principle of not having generic
drivers in the IA-64 patch.
