Hi Finn,

The core driver, esp_scsi, does not use the ESP_CONFIG2_FENAB bit, so
the chip's Transfer Counter register is only 16 bits wide (not 24).
A larger transfer cannot work and will theoretically result in a failed
command and a "DMA length is zero" error.

Thanks for your patch!

Fixes: 3109e5ae0311

Fixes: 3109e5ae0311 ("scsi: zorro_esp: New driver for Amiga Zorro
NCR53C9x boards")

$ git help fixes
'fixes' is aliased to 'show --format='Fixes: %h ("%s")' -s'

BTW, if you use vim, add

    noremap ;gs "zyiw:exe "new \| setlocal buftype=nofile
bufhidden=hide noswapfile syntax=git \| 0r ! git show ".@z."" \|
:0<CR><CR>

to .vimrc, and type ";gs" when the cursor is positioned on a commit ID.

Since all these sub-drivers seem to support 24-bit transfers, perhaps this is
something to be fixed in the esp_scsi core?
