Turn off CONFIG_AIC7XXX_BUILD_FIRMWARE.

I have said it before and I will keep saying it until somebody takes
notice. The aic7xxx Makefiles are *BROKEN*.

I have a standing offer to rewrite the aic7xxx kernel build for 2.4 so
it is done correctly and removes these persistent problems. All it
needs is for the aic7xxx maintainer to agree that the 2.4 makefiles are
wrong and to let me correct them.

Keith Owens, kernel build maintainer.
