Dan Carpenter 9151b3982d i2o: check copy_from_user() size parameter Limit the size of the copy so we don't corrupt memory. Hopefully this can only be called by root, but fixing this makes the static checkers happier.

CREDITS

	This work was made possible by 

Red Hat Software
	Funding for the Building #3 part of the project

	Host adapters, hints, known to work platforms when I hit
	compatibility problems

STATUS:

o	The core setup works within limits.
o	The scsi layer seems to almost work. 
           I'm still chasing down the hang bug.
o	The block OSM is mostly functional
o	LAN OSM works with FDDI and Ethernet cards.

TO DO:

General:
o	Provide hidden address space if asked
o	Long term message flow control
o	PCI IOP's without interrupts are not supported yet
o	Push FAIL handling into the core
o	DDM control interfaces for module load etc
o       Add I2O 2.0 support (Deffered to 2.5 kernel)

Block:
o	Multiple major numbers
o	Read ahead and cache handling stuff. Talk to Ingo and people
o	Power management
o	Finish Media changers

SCSI:
o	Find the right way to associate drives/luns/busses

Lan:	
o	Performance tuning
o	Test Fibre Channel code

Tape:
o	Anyone seen anything implementing this ?
           (D.S: Will attempt to do so if spare cycles permit)
