[patch] 2.6: modular scsi/mca_53c9x doesn't work (fwd)

[Adrian Bunk]

The issue described in the mail forwarded below is still present in 
2.6.7-rc3-mm2 (but not specific to -mm).

I'd suggest the following workaround:

I got the following mesage when trying to build modular a mca_53c9x in 
2.6.0-test11-mm1:

<--  snip  -->

It seems there are some EXPORT_SYMBOL's needed in NCR53C9x.c?
