On 2.4.21-rc3/amd64 with previous aic79xx patches, use of
rescan-scsi-bus.sh had a tendency to hose the entire machine.  If there
was a new device, aic79xx emitted a console message that it could not
allocate the new device.  After that all I/O to the device failed,  and
the rescan-scsi-bus.sh process was in the D state forever.

In the latest aic79xx, this no longer happens.  rescan-scsi-bus.sh works
fine.

Cheers,
jwb
