Well the driver got in during 2.5.7x times through Linus himself after
we sent him the initial stuff we did. During that time we made around
250-270kb of changes to the driver which we had some problems getting in
due to the size. Around 2 weeks ago I contacted Alan Cox if he may
review the changes we made during that time and if he could get it in
somehow. So the changes (the 2500-2800 lines) showed up in the AC tree 1
week ago and now got merged into the test2-bk1/2 tree some days ago.
During the merge there seemed to be a one char issue in bk2 which
prevented the driver from compiling, that's why I sent in a little one
liner patch that fixes this behaviour.

Jamie Lenehan fixed that stuff correctly now (because there was some XXX
Fixme's in the code) as you see thats the 3 patches Jamie sent to the
scsi list today/yesterday (depends on the timezone). These 3 patches
should go against bk2 (which I have tested this morning) works and
applies without any problems.

So if possible please add these 3 patches ontop of what's inside bk2,
this will save us a lot of pain :)
