The NCR53c8xx/SYM53c8xx drivers in 2.2.11pre6 don't detect the
Symbios NCR53c875 rev. 0x37-based boards. These boards are shipping
with some VA server systems and work fine with kernel 2.2.7. The
following (simple) patch makes the newer drivers recognize this
revision.

This is my first attempt at any kernel changes; I hope I'm not
providing a malformed patch. Perhaps if this change looks ok, it can
make it into 2.2.11.
