Could you revert your change and give my patch below a try. Btw, you will
be in sync with my current sources. Booting with sym53c8xx=debug:1 will
let the driver print all memory allocations to the syslog. You may send me
the drivers messages related to these allocations for information.

  Gérard.

PS: I do have tried the patch on a IA32 machine under linux-2.4.13.
