[REPOST: PATCH] Fix panic when reinserting Adaptec PCMCIA SCSI card.

[Alex Davis <alex14641@yahoo.com>]

This is a resubmit of a patch that was submitted 2 weeks ago. To date, no feedback
has been received.

Please cc: me as I am not subscribed.

===========================================================================
If the card is re-inserted 2 or more times, we access elements
past the end of the aha152x_host array.

Also correct spelling errors.
