[PATCH] aic7xxx/aicasm ld failure

[Bob_Trac]

Dunno what the officially blessed compiler is these days, or whether
that even makes a difference.  The problem is that the order in which
object modules and libraries are specified on the linker command line
is significant.  The following patchlet (against 2.5.48-2.5.50) moves
"-ldb" out of AICASM_CFLAGS and into a separate LIBS variable to avoid
an undefined __db185_open symbol.
