+** (Kornel Wieliczek's comment)
+** 1.20.00.07 3/23/2005 Erich Chen bug fix with arcmsr_scsi_host_template_init
+** occur segmentation fault,
+** if RAID adapter does not on PCI slot
+** and modprobe/rmmod this driver twice.
+** bug fix enormous stack usage (Adrian Bunk's comment)
+** 1.20.00.08 6/23/2005 Erich Chen bug fix with abort command,
+** in case of heavy loading when sata cable

+** add DMA_64BIT_MASK for backward compatible with all 2.6.x
+** add some useful message for abort command
