This is the accumulated updates queued for 2.6.24.  It contains the
usual slew of driver updates, plus some gdth and advansys rewrites.  We
still have some outstanding bugs in gdth and fc4 for which I'm hoping to
sweep fixes into the next update.

The patch is available here:

Subject: [PATCH] scsi_mac.h: Define AUTOSENSE before include of NCR5380.h

  - Previese patch to NCR5380 broke scsi_mac because
    AUTOSENSE was defined after the inclusion of
    NCR5380.h. Fix it

Well, I suppose losing your own patches is a sign of fairness in patch
loss ... OK I'll stick them in.
