Subject2.1.125/5.1 breaks aic7xxx support
From
Date
Booting up 2.1.125 on our main webserver results in an infinite loop
of bus resets as the driver attempts to probe the devices.

The system has an Asus p2l97-ds twin PII M/board with onboard aic7880,
and in addition to this we also have an adaptec 3940 for a grand total
of 3 ultra-narrow scsi chains.

[boot messages from 2.1.124]

scsi0 : Adaptec AHA274x/284x/294x (EISA/VLB/PCI-Fast SCSI) 5.0.20/3.2.4

<Adaptec AHA-394X Ultra SCSI host adapter>

scsi : detected 4 SCSI disks total.

At the point marked [***] above, the 5.1 driver in 2.1.125 goes into
an infinite 'lets reset the bus on scsi0' loop.

This is something of a showstopper bug for us.
