I think you can drop the changelog entry here -- it's not been updated
in many years.  Plus, it's not really accurate.

OK.

 	{"COMPAQ", "LOGICAL VOLUME", NULL, BLIST_FORCELUN},

I wonder if you should just be adding BLIST_MAX_512K to the current
entry for LOGICAL VOLUME instead?

The "LOGICAL VOLUME" was there before and I think I will break the SCSI Version.

Definitely don't start a changelog.  That's what SCMs are for.

OK.

Indent with tabs, not spaces.  Also, sdev->max_512k is a bit ...
specific.  How about adding an unsigned short to struct scsi_device
(right above queue_depth, so it fits in the padding) called something
like max_xfer_len?  Then you can do something like:

	sdev->max_xfer_len = 0xffff;
	if (*bflags & BLIST_MAX_512K)
		sdev->max_xfer_len = 0x200;

Ups.. standard problem..(
sdev->max_xfer_len is a good idea.

Shure.

I'm not sure that's what you meant to do, even.  How about more simply:

	/*

	 * Also allow SCSI-2 and unknown devices if BLIST_REPORTLUN2 is set
	 * and host adapter supports more than 8 LUNs.

+Compaq RA4x00 Fiber Channel Array support	if@xxxxxx 29.03.2006
+						crossip communications gmbh
+
+In 2.4.x linux kernels the cpqfc driver supported the Compaq RA4x00 Fiber 
+Channel Array. Limitation in 2.4.x kernels was that the RA4x00 only worked with
+a cpqfc supported fiber channel adapter (Tachyon chipset).
+
+In 2.6.x linux kernels the support for the cpqfc has been dropped because of
+very awful code and resulting porting problems from 2.4.x to 2.6.x.
+
+Support for the RA4x00 is now directly in the linux kernel but need some
+special configuration:
+*) Use a already supported fiber channel cards
+*) Update the RA4x00 to firmware version 2.60
+*) Load the scsi_mod modules with option: max_luns=4294967295
+
+
+More information about the RA4x00 could be found:
+http://hp.com
