Looks like mraid_mm_init() hasn't done the
	INIT_LIST_HEAD(&adapters_list_g);
yet.  You might be able to verify that by using
"initcall_debug" on the kernel boot/command line.
I don't see the expected "megaraid cmm:" message, e.g.

I expected to be able to build these drivers as modules, but that's
not allowed by their Kconfig.  Is that because of the module
inter-dependencies?
