 I don't know which state 0x88 would mean, but if the BIOS manager
 detects this as valid, we could just do the same as workaround for
 now.
 
 Please try to make the following modification, in
 arc_bio_disk_filldata(), add another case matching 0x88 to set the
 drive to BIOC_SDONLINE.
 
 I guess there will be a problem with the raid and volume set too.
