Yea, I sent an mail to LKML in the end of last year regarding this issue.

However, I think that Adaptec probably just re-make a new version of dpt_i2o.
My patch may differ from the Adaptec policy.

I thought that it may be good for someone need the driver before Adaptec 
completed the driver. What's why I uploaded my patch onto web.

The number of the access is over 1000 now after I counted it.

Please merge to Andrew's tree if Adaptec does not mind.

This is my patch same as send from Clemens.
