There are more places in this file with extraneous parentheses, for example:

 952         if ((RD_HARPOON(ioport + hp_vendor_id_1) != ORION_VEND_1))
 953                 return (int)FAILURE;
 954
 955         if ((RD_HARPOON(ioport + hp_device_id_0) != ORION_DEV_0))
 956                 return (int)FAILURE;
 957
 958         if ((RD_HARPOON(ioport + hp_device_id_1) != ORION_DEV_1))

Wonder why the compiler does not complain about these, but this patch is
good for now. I will clean up the rest in another patch.

James, Martin, please pull this patch into the scsi tree.
