Understood.

Actually, what confused me is that aic79xx_osm.c has no
ahc_linux_slave_configure function. Whatever, as I only use aic7xxx U160
adapter, I modified aic7xxx_osm.c and gave it a try. But with no luck:
# sg_readcap -16 -vv /dev/sdc
read capacity (16) cdb: 9e 10 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 20 00 00
