HI Arthur,
	Really appreciate your help to test the patches. That's
a good sign we have moved forward a bit:)
	For kexec, it's always challenging to me. So could you
please help to provide full dmesg logs with working kernels
so I could try to figure out the order among scsi and PCI devices.
It may be shutdown order related.
Thanks!
Gerry
