hi Simon ,

Was this onan ioasic machine? I think the Mi scsi code assumes
it can do unbroken I/Os of more than 8k. Until we handle ioasic
DMA-pointer reloads, or split larger transkactions into piecss <= 8k,
very Bad Things will happen when the fs layer requests a read/write of more
than 8k.

I have no idea whether Michael or Nisihmura-san's code handles this.
