If anyone is interested, I fixed the problem by moving the line
containing PCI_DEVICE_ID_ADAPTEC_7881 on top of the list of PCI-cards
probed for around line 6000 in aic7xxx.c. It worked.

If this is the way to fix the problem, I would almost consider it a
bug, since the low-end cards are probed for first.
