Subject: [PATCH] scsi: aic7xxx: Use default settings on the SGI O2 onboard
controllers
The SGI O2 firmware runs its onboard aic7880s without the Adaptec BIOS, so
scratch RAM holds no settings. The left over BIOS path reads uninitialised
bytes, and bad parity panics the boot.
Use the defaults there with host ID 0. ahc_init() keeps the default host ID
ahc_pci_config() chose, 7 on other PCI controllers, so only the O2 changes.
Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
