I am using a LSIU160/Symbios 53c1010 Ultra3 scsi adapter and it works at full speed (75 MB/sec) with kernel-2.6.12. And dmesg shows:

kernel: target0:0:0: Beginning Domain Validation
kernel: target0:0:0: asynchronous.
kernel: WIDTH IS 1
kernel: target0:0:0: wide asynchronous.

With kernel-2.6.13-r6 the speed drops back to 2.70 MB/sec because of
validation failure and dmesg shows:

kernel: target0:0:0: Beginning Domain Validation
