+Release Date    : Mon Mar 07 12:27:22 EST 2005 - Seokmann Ju <sju@lsil.com>
+Current Version : 2.20.4.6 (scsi module), 2.20.2.6 (cmm module)
+Older Version   : 2.20.4.5 (scsi module), 2.20.2.5 (cmm module)
+
+1.      Added IOCTL backward compatibility.
+        Convert megaraid_mm driver to new compat_ioctl entry points.
+        I don't have easy access to hardware, so only compile tested.
+                - Signed-off-by:Andi Kleen <ak@muc.de>
+
+2.      megaraid_mbox fix: wrong order of arguments in memset()
+        That, BTW, shows why cross-builds are useful-the only indication of
+        problem had been a new warning showing up in sparse output on alpha
+        build (number of exceeding 256 got truncated).
+                - Signed-off-by: Al Viro
+                <viro@parcelfarce.linux.theplanet.co.uk>
+
+3.      Convert pci_module_init to pci_register_driver
+        Convert from pci_module_init to pci_register_driver
+        (from:http://kerneljanitors.org/TODO)
+                - Signed-off-by: Domen Puncer <domen@coderock.org>
+
+4.      Use the pre defined DMA mask constants from dma-mapping.h
+        Use the DMA_{64,32}BIT_MASK constants from dma-mapping.h when calling
+        pci_set_dma_mask() or pci_set_consistend_dma_mask(). See
+        http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=108001993000001&r=1&w=2 for more
+        details.

+
+5.      Remove SSID checking for Dobson, Lindsay, and Verde based products.
+        Checking the SSVID/SSID for controllers which have Dobson, Lindsay,
+        and Verde is unnecessary because device ID has been assigned by LSI
+        and it is unique value. So, all controllers with these IOPs have to be
+        supported by the driver regardless SSVID/SSID.

+        From Herbert Poetzl <> 
+        Subject RFC: assert_spin_locked() for 2.6 
+
+        Greetings!
+
+        overcautious programming will kill your kernel ;)
+        ever thought about checking a spin_lock or even
+        asserting that it must be held (maybe just for
+        spinlock debugging?) ...
+
+        there are several checks present in the kernel
+        where somebody does a variation on the following:
+
+          BUG_ON(!spin_is_locked(&some_lock));
+
+        so what's wrong about that? nothing, unless you
+        compile the code with CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK but 
+        without CONFIG_SMP ... in which case the BUG()
+        will kill your kernel ...
+
+        maybe it's not advised to make such assertions, 
+        but here is a solution which works for me ...
+        (compile tested for sh, x86_64 and x86, boot/run
+        tested for x86 only)
+
+        best,
+        Herbert
