Subject: [PATCH] mptspi: fix oops in mptspi_dv_renegotiate_work()
Date: Mon, 07 Jul 2008 11:24:06 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1215447846.3274.31.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

The problem here is that if the ioc faults too early in the bring up
sequence (as it usually does for an irq routing problem), ioc_reset gets
called before the scsi host is even allocated.  This causes an oops when
it later schedules a renegotiation.  Fix this by checking ioc->sh before
trying to renegotiate.
