Hannes,

as we're trying to get rid of the remaining request_fn drivers here's
a patchset to move the DAC960 driver to the SCSI stack.  As per
request from hch I've split up the driver into two new SCSI drivers
called 'myrb' and 'myrs'.

Applied to 4.20/scsi-queue since Jens already dropped the block driver.

Have you considered a dummy CONFIG_BLK_DEV_DAC960 config option like we
did when we merged mpt2sas and mpt3sas?

No, I haven't, but I should probably do it. Should I fix up the patch
or send an additional one?

Also, does MODULE_ALIAS do the right thing when a driver is split into
two distinct modules?

Well, it does; half of the time :-)

Personally, I don't think there'll be many users around so I've just 
added if for completions sake.

But I can remove it if you think that'll be more suitable.

Cheers,

Hannes
