Initial Import 2.6.0

### Version 2.00.3
Wed Jan 29 09:13:44 EST 200 - Atul Mukker <atulm@lsil.com>
i.	Change the handshake in ISR while acknowledging interrupts. Write the
	valid interrupt pattern 0x10001234 as soon as it is read from the
	outdoor register. In existing driver and on certain platform, invalid
	command ids were being returned.

	Also, do not wait on status be become 0xFF, since FW can return this
	status in certain circumstances.

	Initialize the numstatus field of mailbox to 0xFF so that we can wait
	on this wait in next interrupt. Firmware does not change its value
	unless there are some status to be posted

ii.	Specify the logical drive number while issuing the RESERVATION_STATUS

iii.	Reduce the default mailbox busy wait time from 300us to 10us. This is
	done to avaoid a possible deadlock in FW because of longer bust waits.

iv.	The max outstanding commands are reduced to 126 because that't the
	safest value on all FW.

v.	Number of sectors per IO are reduced to 128 (64kb), becuase FW needs
	resources in special circumstances like check consistency, rebuilds
	etc.

vi.	max_commands is no longer a module parameter because of iv.

	is completed.
