RE: Emulex fibre channel HBA support and SAN connection

[James . Smart]

IP over FC was removed from our 8.x series driver as we pushed for
upstream acceptance. So, you must be running a older driver. Please
go through the proper support channels for that driver rev.

IP over FC would be re-added as part of making a common interface for
all FC drivers (see Andrew Vasquez's previous email on the topic).
