Hi Petr,
The patch you posted for the MPT Fusion driver regression with VMware
5.5.4 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/3/23/345) was used to fix a Gentoo
kernel bug (http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=185272).
Have you received word from upstream (kernel devs) yet as to whether
your patch will be included? Or if it will be included at all?
Since it is a problem not specific to the kernel,
no 'fix' or workaround is going to be included.
Jan
