There's not real test.  But a good indication is that you have all
almost no global variables (except some debug switches) and all
I/O address / state / etc in per-host instance data.

Please try to include all <asm/*> headers after <linux/*>.
You should't need major.h and proc_fs.h at least.

A proper pcmcia driver shouldn't need this one.

The kernel already has min(), and it even does type-checking.

Shouldn't be needed.

Everything in a scsi driver should be static.  Also try to avoid prototypes
for static functions whenever possible by ordering functions by their calling
chain.

In 2.6 please use the type-chcking whizz-bang module_param instead of
MODULE_PARAM.

Do you actually use this debug code?  It's rather pc-specific..

Try to avoid typedefs if possible according to the Linux Kernel coding
style.  And yes, the pcmcia code isn't how it should be done, I know
you only copied it ;-)

This is what I mean.  To support more than one card these variables and
some more would have to be in a per-host struct.

So handle the failure case :)

You need to call scsi_remove_host as the first thing in this function.

Well, please just kill it.  ->proc_info is deprecated in 2.6.

You don't need to implement these.  If an EH method isn't implemented
FAILED is the default return value.

You should probably merged SYM53C500_intr with this one.

This screams for a goto error and the error handler in one place :)

These variables are _really_ strange.  In a normal Linux driver
the names that are variables here (TC_LSB, etc..) would be defines
to the numberical values you add to port_base and when you're actually
using them you'd use shost->io_port + TC_LSB or whatever as the actual
address.

It's actually superflous for scsi drivers these days.
