during "insmod 53c7,8xx" I get a long error message "bad DSA pointer
0xC0000000".
I found a statement in "53c7,8xx.c" that this is a known bug, and that
additional printk's were added for further diagnosis.

configuration:
2.2.0-pre3
CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN
CONFIG_SCSI_NCR53C7XX_MODULE 1
#undef CONFIG_SCSI_NCR53C7XX_DISCONNECT
#undef CONFIG_SCSI_NCR53C7XX_sync
#undef CONFIG_SCSI_NCR53C7XX_FAST

The bug is fully reproducible, so please send me an email if you need
further informations.

Manfred
P.S.: I've switched to the ncr53c8xx driver, and that driver runs without
any problems.
