So QLogic's most recent driver on their website:

will compile against the feisty kernel... and it WILL work properly. It fixed these issues for me:
CLI works again
Bootup properly detects all SAN LUNs
System doesn't randomly kernel panic and crash (so far :) )

So I would highly recommend this driver be included with the gusty kernel. IANAL, I do not know if there are licensing issues, but the driver in the feisty kernel was from qlogic aswell.

All:
If you do download the qlogic driver and install it, here's the procedure I used

tar -xzvf qlaiscsi-linux-5.01.00.08-2-install.tgz
cd 5.01.00.08
extras/build.sh
extras/build.sh install
update-initramfs

*don't forget* the update-initramfs... otherwise you'll use the original driver on bootup
