------------
On some systems (Asus), the BIOS is known to interfere with the driver
-and cause read errors. The driver will retry a given number of times
+and cause read errors. Or maybe the W83L785TS-S chip is simply unreliable,
+we don't really know. The driver will retry a given number of times
(5 by default) and then give up, returning the old value (or 0 if
there is no old value). It seems to work well enough so that you should
not notice anything. Thanks to James Bolt for helping test this feature.

+
+1. Rollback the sense info implementation
+ Sense buffer ptr data type in the ioctl path is reverted back
+ to u32 * as in previous versions of driver.
+
+2. Fixed the driver frame count.
+ When Driver sent wrong frame count to firmware. As this
+ particular command is sent to drive, FW is seeing continuous
+ chip resets and so the command will timeout.
+
+3. Add the new controller(1078DE) support to the driver
+ and Increase the max_wait to 60 from 10 in the controller
+ operational status. With this max_wait increase, driver will
+ make sure the FW will finish the pending cmd for KDUMP case.
