Yes, with the latest changes being proposed/implemented by Jeff G.,
there would need to be some additional massaging of the driver's
eh_*() routines.

Are you planning on putting the host_lock-free changes in for -rc,
I figured that would be going into the next kernel rev.  I mention
that because I have a block of patches which I have queued-up to add
new chip support to the driver.

Jeff, could you drop the qla2xxx driver from your scrubing
host_lock-free changes.  I'll go ahead and post an updated patch
following the patches in my queue.

Thanks,
Andrew Vasquez
