+** 1.20.00.06    3/12/2005       Erich Chen     fix with arcmsr_pci_unmap_dma "unsigned long" cast,
+**						modify PCCB POOL allocated by "dma_alloc_coherent"
+**						(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
+**						working on low quality connection
+** 1.20.00.09    9/12/2005       Erich Chen     bug fix with abort command handling, firmware version check
+**						and firmware update notify for hardware bug fix
+** 1.20.00.10    9/23/2005       Erich Chen     enhance sysfs function for change driver's max tag Q number.
+**						add DMA_64BIT_MASK for backward compatible with all 2.6.x
+**						add some useful message for abort command
+**						add ioctl code 'ARCMSR_IOCTL_FLUSH_ADAPTER_CACHE'
+**						customer can send this command for sync raid volume data
