Subject: aic79xx: wrong max memory at driver init
From: Frederic TEMPORELLI <frederic.temporelli@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Aic79xx driver for Adaptec 39320 supports 64-bit addressing, but the
initialization code of the driver is wrong: it tests the available memory
size instead of testing the maximum available memory address. This is
necessary to support servers that provides 1 Terabyte of physical memory
space addressing.
Attached is the suggested patch to solve this issue.
