Aha2940 Pro under linux

[Conrad Heiney]

Oddly, PGP decided to be _really_ secure and encrypt this the first time. Let's
just try it in the clear, shall we? ::blush::

I had success using the latest patch for the aic7xxx driver (5.1.16). The
patches are available at ftp.redhat.com, I believe in the pub/aic directory.

(Thanks Doug!)
