RE: [PATCH] fix idiocy in asd_init_lseq_mdp()

James,

asd_write_reg_dword() is the correct implementation for writing the
LmM0INTEN_MASK to the LmSEQ_INTEN_SAVE register.

I don't honestly know.  The change was made as part of a slew of changes
by Robert Tarte at Adaptec to make the driver run on Big Endian
platforms.  I've copied Jack Hammer who's now looking after it in the
hope that he can enlighten us.
