I have a quick and drity patch for 1 contorlller:

I patched as floows:

--- ./drivers/block/cpqarray.c.old      Wed Mar 20 14:53:16 2002
+++ drivers/block/cpqarray.c    Wed Mar 20 15:31:32 2002
@@ -1009,6 +1009,7 @@

 startio:
        start_io(h);
+       add_blkdev_randomness(MAJOR_NR);
 }

 /*

other Driver (handling more the 1 drive) find out the
Major driver number ...

./drivers/scsi/scsi_lib.c:      add_blkdev_randomness(MAJOR(req->rq_dev));
./drivers/ide/ide.c:            add_blkdev_randomness(MAJOR(rq->rq_dev));
./drivers/block/DAC960.c:         add_blkdev_randomness(DAC960_MAJOR +=20
Controller->ControllerNumber);

How would I do this for the cpqarray ?
