Cyberstorm Mark 2 is handled by the cbiisc driver backend, which uses
the machine independent ncr53c9x frontend, so maybe it was a generic 
problem fixed.

Cyberstorm Mark 3 is handled by the cbiiisc/siop2 driver, Amiga specific
as I didn't find time to a) work on busdma for Amiga and b) check the 
endiannness independence of the generic siop/esiop code (and it needs 
more timing entries to work with Mk).

You can find out by looking at /var/run/dmesg.org .
