RE: Megaraid: Use of outb_p

Alan,

As you pointed out, there are only 2uS difference on x86 platforms for
the changes.  Also the inb_p/outb_p are used for the very old megaraid
scsi controllers.  The src changes should be ok for us.

Regards.

Only on some platforms. On the x86 platforms the inb_p()/outb_p()
includes a 2uS delay while inb/outb do not.
