[SCSI] advansys: fix overrun_buf aligned bug
struct asc_dvc_var needs overrun buffer to be placed on an 8 byte boundary. advansys defines struct asc_dvc_var: struct asc_dvc_var { ... uchar overrun_buf[ASC_OVERRUN_BSIZE] __aligned(8); The problem is that struct asc_dvc_var is placed on shost->hostdata. So if the hostdata is not on an 8 byte boundary, the advansys crashes. The hostdata is placed on a sizeof(unsigned long) boundary so the 8 byte boundary is not garanteed with x86_32. With 2.6.23 and 2.6.24, the hostdata is on an 8 byte boundary by chance, but with the current git, it's not. This patch removes overrun_buf static array and use kzalloc.
