+	* ncr53c8xx.c - revision 1.16e
+	- Add support of PCI burst length control from boot setup command.
+	  burst:0     disable burst
+	  burst:255   get burst from initial settings (BIOS settings?)
+	  burst:#x    set burst transfers to 1<<#x
+	- Only check xfer direction for common op-codes.
+	  For all device specific / vendor specific opcodes the driver 
+	  now uses the xfer direction decided by the target.

+	* ncr53c8xx.c - revision 1.16d
+	- The driver is now able to process scsi commands without 
+	  knowledge of xfer data direction.
+	  Stefan agreed with this change for Linux. This change is 
+	  not needed under FreeBSD since low-level drivers receive 
+	  the expected data direction for each scsi request.
+	- Save ctest5 features bits at start-up and restore them at 
+	  module release step.
+	  Avoid side effects when a ncr driver which trusts bios 
+	  settings is reloaded (could be the ncr53c8xx itself).

+	* ncr53c8xx.c - revision 1.16c
+	- Bad decision about 20MHz for 13 ns period factor.
+	  Was wrong, so I restore the previous algorithm.
+	- Burst length 128 not correctly set in dmode.
