that the sym53c8xx.c file is changed, in fact I have correct the problem

I have not found any mention of sym53c8xx.c change in the changesets at

be an erroneous update ... it is possible ?

It got updated when I updated 2_5 with some of the changes from 2_4.  What
machine is this?

My machine is a Motorola MVME5100 with a PMC150-K mezzanine card based on
the sym53c875 chip.

 Search the linuxppc-dev list, as Geert had this same problem
on his LongTrail.

Yes, Geert had the same problem, but following the thread it seems to me
that     it is still unsolved, or I have not understand ?
I have not the necessary skill on SCSI to find and patch the problem, but
the developer(s) working on that can use me as tester or other.

The problem is actually w/ PCI resources, if I remember it correctly.
It's a problem in phys_to_bus, or so Geert determined.
