This patch addresses the issue of the aic94xx driver not working on non-x86 or on systems where the card bios had been disabled. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6042 Rob Tarte, Jeff Ding, and I coordinated on the fix for the OCM issue. The patch has been run on a Powermac G5, a PPC64, and IA64 based system. -andmike -- Michael Anderson andmike@xxxxxxxxxx This purpose of this patch is to allow the aic94xx driver to load and function on archs that do not allow the cards bios to run. This patch contains a forward port of code changes made to the adp94xx driver that inits the ocm if the bios did not. The patch also provides default parameters for flash values if the flash data cannot be read. Signed-off-by: Mike Anderson <andmike@xxxxxxxxxx>
