Sometime between the 7.2-PRERELEASE cycle started and 7.2-RELEASE,
boot-time probing of tape drives (at least a Quantum DLT8000 and a
Quantum SDLT600) started generating error messages, such as these:
ahc1: <Adaptec 3960D Ultra160 SCSI adapter> port 0xd800-0xd8ff mem 0xfe1fe000-0xfe1fefff irq 25 at device 1.1 on pci2
ahc1: [ITHREAD]
aic7899: Ultra160 Wide Channel B, SCSI Id=7, 32/253 SCBs
...

This is happening for both stand-alone and loader drives, regardless of
whether there is a tape in the drive at boot time.
There is no problem with using the drive - no further messages are log-
ged and the drive operates properly.
Does anyone have any idea what is causing this, and where I should look
to try to track it down?
