Strictly no longer required, even our multi-controller failover software
made alternate daemon application arrangements for inter-card
communications (cache synchronization). Cross Adapter RAID was dropped
in 1998. It was merely a pedantic continuation of this support.

As I indicated (and once I have time) I will recode the paths to
instantiate the adapters individually.
