ifdef on other drivers is bogus, please remove the pci ids completely
from the old driver.  It'd probably be a good idea to rename it to
megaraid_legacy aswell.  I've also asked the LSI Engineers whether they
could help identifying what code could be remove when only supporting
the two oldes chips but haven't gotten a reply yet.  I hope they'll
be able to answer when they're less busy.

Thanks for the feedback. Here's a new patch.



Rename megaraid to megaraid_legacy, changing the filenames, sysfs name, module name, and the messages printed out via printk. I have left the procfs name as "megaraid" as presumably userspace tools rely on this.

Remove hardware ID's from megaraid_legacy which overlap with the newgen megaraid drivers.

Allow megaraid_legacy to be built alongside the newgen driver.

As the patch is large (300K) I am not including it in this mail. You can get it here:
