What's the chance the Adaptec-152x controller (aic0) will soon work
with 3.1-STABLE?

It has pretty horrible performance problems on 2.2.8-STABLE, even when
using DMA:

[...]
 4.4%Sys  91.9%Intr  3.7%User  0.0%Nice  0.0%Idl     4244 inact   204 pci irq9
|    |    |    |    |    |    |    |    |    |       5288 cache   105 aic0 irq11
==++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++      248 free    104 wdc0 irq14
[...]

(which may, of course, be due to the poor design of the board) and
we were wondering if upgrading to 3.1-STABLE will help us in the
foreseeable future?

Thanks!
