From a1a5ea70a6e9db6332b27fe2d96666e17aa1436b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Markus Lidel <Markus.Lidel@shadowconnect.com>

Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] I2O: changed I2O API to create I2O messages in kernel
 memory

Changed the I2O API to create I2O messages first in kernel memory and then
transfer it at once over the PCI bus instead of sending each quad-word over
the PCI bus.
