A good rule of thumb is compile before acking:

drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7770.c: In function 'aic7770_config':
drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7770.c:224: error: implicit declaration of function 'free'
drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7770.c:224: error: 'M_DEVBUF' undeclared (first use in this function)
drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7770.c:224: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7770.c:224: error: for each function it appears in.)
make[3]: *** [drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic7770.o] Error 1

It looks like a lone missed conversion, so I fixed it up.
