PARISC changes to drivers/scsi

PARISC changes to drivers/scsi

[Matthew Wilcox]

Since you guys are starting to discuss stuff pertaining to Linux/PARISC,
I'd like to be sure you're aware of our current changes vs Linus' tree.
I wouldn't call our current tree even remotely stable in 2.5, so I
wasn't planning on submitting these bits.  But do feel free to cherrypick
anything you want from this patch and incorporate it.  If you notice any
bugs, all the better; I don't think anyone one the PA side is paying
particular attention to these drivers and changes to SCSI that affect
them at the moment.

You can see the patch at
http://ftp.linux.org.uk/pub/linux/willy/patches/parisc-scsi.diff

If you care to see our full diff vs Linus 2.5.46 (bear in mind some of
this has gone into -bk recently), you can get it from
http://ftp.parisc-linux.org/2.5/kernel-src/CVS2546_PA7-LINUS_2546.diff.gz

The zalon changes look OK.  Unfortunately, the ncr53c8xx is a broken driver at 
the moment (it needs to be converted to the new error handling).  I also 
believe its orphaned, so if you want to sign up to fix it...

Could you run the sym53c8xx_2 changes past Gérard Roudier, since I think he's 
still maintaining that one?

Thanks,

James
