Are you sure it's a good idea to do this? This patch is 1200 lines long
... the same size as the existing driver:
$ wc drivers/scsi/hptiop.*
947 2273 24531 drivers/scsi/hptiop.c
256 612 6175 drivers/scsi/hptiop.h
1203 2885 30706 total
That suggests to me there's not much commonality between the two drivers,
and you'd be better off adding a second driver for the 4xxx cards.
