Hi,

I have a question concerning scsi_malloc.

If I try to use it with my 2.25 kernel in a modularized driver for the
wd719x-cards (still under development), it always returns a NULL-Pointer. 

I also get the NULL when I try to scsi_malloc x-times 512 Bytes.

For the driver, I need more then 4096 Bytes permanently, how can this be
acheived?
