+
+ These are, perhaps, slightly confusing names.
+ The terms device and class_device have well defined meanings in the
+ generic device model, neither of which is what you mean here.
+ Why not simply megaraid_sdev_attrs and megaraid_shost_attrs?
+
+ Other than this, it looks fine to me too.

+1. Remove driver ioctl for logical drive to scsi address translation and
+ replace with the sysfs attribute. To remove drives and change
+ capacity, application shall now use the device attribute to get the
+ logical drive number for a scsi device. For adding newly created
+ logical drives, class device attribute would be required to uniquely
+ identify each controller.

+ PCI_VENDOR_ID_AMI, PCI_DEVICE_ID_AMI_MEGARAID3,

+ The patch below makes some needlessly global code static.

+
+4. Added NEC ROMB support - NEC MegaRAID PCI Express ROMB controller
+ PCI_VENDOR_ID_LSI_LOGIC, PCI_DEVICE_ID_MEGARAID_NEC_ROMB_2E,
+ PCI_SUBSYS_ID_NEC, PCI_SUBSYS_ID_MEGARAID_NEC_ROMB_2E,
+
+5. Fixed Tape drive issue : For any Direct CDB command to physical device
+ including tape, timeout value set by driver was 10 minutes. With this
+ value, most of command will return within timeout. However, for those
+ command like ERASE or FORMAT, it takes more than an hour depends on
+ capacity of the device and the command could be terminated before it
+ completes.
+ To address this issue, the 'timeout' field in the DCDB command will
+ have NO TIMEOUT (i.e., 4) value as its timeout on DCDB command.
