[Fwd: [PATCH 1/1] cciss: fix regression, sysfs symlink missing]

[Doug Chapman <doug.chapman@xxxxxx>]

This patch has been submitted upstream but I don't know if it will get
pulled in to Fedora through the normal channels prior to F10 or not.
Without this patch Fedora 10 will not install on cciss which breaks
nearly all HP server systems.

thanks,

- Doug
