PJ cards. This will probably also support the AcceleRAID and
eXtremeRAID cards, but nobody has volunteered one for testing, so I
haven't enabled their PCI device IDs.
Slightly clean up communication between the disk devices and the
controller device as per new practice, and move some more register-
related items int mlxreg.h from mlxvar.h.
Remove some unnecessary read-modify-write operations to the card
control registers; they don't behave like that.
Increase the status polling interval to 10 seconds. It's still possible
to load the card up to the point where a status poll will find the
previous poll still running, but this will reduce the incidence of
complaints.
Add a title "DOS" to the X window.

potentially mis-aligned buffer then trying to update the ip_sum
without causing an exception on non-i386 hardware.
I've never been able to reproduce this problem, but it has been
reported by many people... besides, the code is now a bit cleaner.

Change the name of the v flag variable from 'verbose' to 'vflag',

Add -S flag to specify the size of some operations.

Print the number of active requests.
Print out loginfo_sdio and loginfo_sdiodone log entries.

vinum_conf, struct drive: add fields for the current number of active

of the previous explicit constant.

Change the way we set the active request count. This enables us to

it in the first place since I knew the K7s were coming out soon but
did not want to assume they'd have the same MTRR interface as Intel's
chips.
