Just to echo some comments I said in private, this driver is _not_
a replacement for drivers/ide.  This is not, and has never been,
the intention.  In fact, I need drivers/ide's continued existence,
so that I may have fewer boundaries on future development.

Even though ATAPI support doesn't exist and error handling is
primitive, this driver has been extensively tested locally and I feel
is ready for a full and public kernel developer assault :)

James ok'd sending this...  I'll be sending "un-hack scsi headers" patch
through him via his scsi-misc-2.5 tree.


Linus, please do a

	bk pull bk://kernel.bkbits.net/jgarzik/scsi-2.5
