While this patch was made against ac8, it patches clean against 2.4.11

* Added support for SCSI tape drives (Steve Cameron)
* Added support for dynamically adding and removing
logical volumes, This implies that the disk index
("x" in /dev/cciss/c*b*dx*) is no longer a contiguous
sequential series (e.g. 0,1,2,3) as it now maps to
logical
volume numbers directly and thus there may be gaps.
(Charles White)

(Note, due to bug in sd driver, tape support will not work with 2.4.10
kernel, 2.4.11-pre3 or better is required)
