Subject: Fusion-MPT slowness workaround

Hello,
because I ran into problem with fusion mpt scsi with 2.6.14 yesterday
I tried to find a workaround.
Because it seems that there is bug in DV code I patched driver to skip
DV and use firmware negotiation data.
It "works for me" both compiled-in and as module.
I tried to Cc all ppl who were working on the issue in past.
Martin Devera aka devik
