Differences between 2.2.0pre7ac4 and 2.2.0pre7ac5
o Backed out the routing change - doesnt work and ANK dislikes it
o Scheduling info fix
o Re-order PCI probes to match 2.0.x more - this stops the ne2kpci and
tulip cards changing ethN order between 2.0 and 2.2
o Restored the multi-lun ide-scsi stuff. Sure it breaks the 1 in
50,000 cases of people with multilun but it stops the tons of other
cases where it crashes the machine.
o More typo fixes
o AIC7xxx defaults to tagged queue off
o Remove IBM drive from blacklist
p Page cache hash is now scaled by memory size

it.
o Cleaned up KMOD ifdefs
