Thanks!  Please send this information (perhaps in patch form) to
linux-scsi@vger.kernel.org, cc-ing Xiangliang Yu
<yuxiangl@marvell.com> and James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@suse.de>?
We'd be happy to apply this when it is accepted upstream.

(There's also more information than you ever wanted to know about
sending patches in Documentation/SubmittingPatches.  Though most of
it is probably not too relevant here.  I'd also suggest putting the
entry before the one for 9485, so they are in chip order, though maybe
that's too anal. :))

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
