I have tested the patch on 3CR990-TX-97 with latest NV image. The
controller I have used to work with old firmware until I
accidentally flashed to latest NV image, 03.001.008. Controllers
that have Typhoon 1.1 or higher sleep image version no longer work
with old firmware. What I'd like to know was the latest firmware
can still function correctly with old NV image(e.g. Typhoon 1.0
sleep image) but no users seem to have that old controller. If you
have controllers that have Typhoon 1.0 sleep image please give it a
try and let me know. If new firmware is not compatible with old NV
image I'll add an entry in man page so users can update to latest
NV image. Note, there is no way to go back to old sleep image
version if you've already flashed to latest NV image 03.001.008.
