btw,
these URIs should be fixed:
qla2xxx/Kconfig:                ftp://ftp.qlogic.com/outgoing/linux/firmware/
qla2xxx/qla_init.c:#define QLA_FW_URL "ftp://ftp.qlogic.com/outgoing/linux/firmware/"

because ftp.qlogic.com is going to disappear, as stated in:
ftp://ftp.qlogic.com/IMPORTANT.THIS.FTP.SITE.TO.BE.SHUTDOWN
