9f1776230d Major update to the AMI MegaRAID driver.
- New support for 40LD firmware found in Series 475 and 471 adapters.
 - Better support for 8LD firmware adapters
 - Ioctl passthrough interface for userland utilities.
 - Improved error handling and queueing.
 - Several bugfixes (including the 'still open' shutdown bug and
   closing some small race conditions).
 - Zone-style command allocator, reducing memory wasted under heavy
   load conditions.
 - CAM interface (disabled and not fully working) for SCSI passthrough
   access to non-disk devices

Thanks to AMI for supplying a pile of new adapters and various other
help in making this happen.

d5a51e03e7 This is a driver for the AMI MegaRAID family of controllers. It all of
the AMI PCI controllers using the 8LD firmware interface (40LD firmware
will be supported as soon as I have hardware to test with).

These controllers are rebadged by Dell as the PERC, as well as by HP
and possibly other vendors.
