Hi all,

I'm working on the ncr7xx driver and plan to add support for the
Bluefish GSC SCSI interface. I looked at the Mach kernel and
found that before accessing the c720 it is initializing something
called zalon.

What is that thing? Should one care about it or just blindly do the
same as the Mach kernel does?
