Hi folks...

I've just committed a new MI 53c9x driver, derived from the source
"shared" by the SPARC and Alpha.  Note that the old "esp" driver is
gone from the tree!  The front-end for the alpha is now called "asc",
the name used in Digital UNIX (formerly DEC OSF/1).  The printfs at
autoconfig time look a little different, too.  This is sort of
what you should expect:

tcds0 at tc0 slot 6 offset 0x0
asc0 at tcds0 slot 0: NCR53C94, 25MHz, SCSI ID 7
scsibus0 at asc0: 8 targets
probe(asc0:0:0): max sync rate 5.00Mb/s
sd0 at scsibus0 targ 0 lun 0: <TOSHIBA, MK438FB, 5157> SCSI2 0/direct fixed
sd0: 859MB, 1980 cyl, 11 head, 80 sec, 512 bytes/sec
probe(asc0:2:0): max sync rate 5.00Mb/s
sd1 at scsibus0 targ 2 lun 0: <DEC, RZ25     (C) DEC, 0700> SCSI2 0/direct fixed
sd1: 406MB, 1476 cyl, 9 head, 62 sec, 512 bytes/sec
asc1 at tcds0 slot 1: NCR53C94, 25MHz, SCSI ID 7
scsibus1 at asc1: 8 targets

I've tested this on a DEC 3000/400, and it works just fine (there were no
real changes to the driver itself; just name changes of functions, mostly).

Just a heads-up.  If you experience any problems, please file a bug
report with send-pr, and CC a copy to me.

Ciao!
