My guess that atto flags have something significant to some other OS, like windows. I couldn't find anyone from ATTO that would answer my doubts. There are some customers that want PCI EXPRESS U320 card, and LSI never decided to make anything beyond xscale. There is this express card from ATTO, as well as one from HP, both having the LSI 1030 chip. LSI managment approved this request for this patch, so we pushed forward with supplying this changeset. I have reposted the patch per Wilcox's request having the ATTO ids, but I just don't see it posted to the forum. I may have to repost.
