cover aic7xxx/aic79xx fixes

Hi James,

I've prepared a new patchset for aic7xxx/aic79xx updates. They mostly bring aic7xxx & aic79xx in sync again; additionally there is one bugfix for aic79xx which fixes external device reset handling (see also the recent thread about this).

Patches en detail:

- Fixup external device reset handling for aic79xx: We really should take care to not confuse the SCSI bus upon external device reset. The fix is actually taken from the original adaptec sources. Kudos to Justin Gibbs and Luben Tuikov for this.
- Fixup precompensation for aic79xx: precompensation is actually handled by a separate iocell chip. We should take care to update the chip according to the DV setting.
- Remove slave_alloc for aic7xxx: Running on a multi-initator bus I still see BUG_ON() in slave_alloc for aic7xxx. And as it already has been removed from aic79xx we can use the same logic here, too.
- Print out signalling for aic79xx: As aic7xxx has the sysfs entry we can as well add it to aic79xx. We don't have HVD but still can distinguish between SE and LVD.

Please apply.

Cheers,

Hannes
