Pre-release patches of aic7xxx-5.1.0 for linux available.

[Elgin Lee]

FYI--I updated to aic7xxx-5.1.0pre2, and now I'm finally seeing all my
devices.  (The 5.0.x series never could detect my Zip drive and rarely
detected my CD-ROM.)  The "Bad SCBPTR" messages seem to have gone away
as well.

My configuration is

        Two Adaptec 2940UW cards

        Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00

          Type:   CD-ROM                           ANSI SCSI revision: 02
        Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
          Vendor: QUANTUM  Model: VIKING 4.5 NSE   Rev: 8808
          Type:   Direct-Access                    ANSI SCSI revision: 02
        Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 05 Lun: 00
          Vendor: IOMEGA   Model: ZIP 100          Rev: D.09
          Type:   Direct-Access                    ANSI SCSI revision: 02

I'll see how well it holds up over the next few days, but so far this
driver is a vast improvement for me over 5.0.x.
