Ok, so how does this go from here into the mainline kernel?
James has moved the driver into the scsi-misc tree, so I assume he has
2.6.19 plans for it.
Yes, that's the usual path for scsi-misc.

It would be great if the arcmsr driver could be included in 2.6.18 so it
can make into all the new distro releases that will be happening the
last 3-4 months of the year.
What distros would that be? And how do you know that they are going to
freeze their kernels at 2.6.18?
Well, I don't know for sure, but thankfully most distro development is
pretty transparent.
The current Fedora Core 6 development (and consequently RHEL5 and
CentOS5) is using 2.6.18-rc kernels (actually as of yesterday, your git
tree).
The current plan is for Debian Etch to freeze on October 18th with a
release in December. There is a good possibility they'll move from
2.6.17 to .18.
