That means that the function copy_to_user in the driver failed and the ioctl
returned EFAULT. Usually programs can cope with that, but it could mean that
they are not able to collect informations from that device.

I'm not sure with MegaCli, what I meant here is the Dell management sw 'Open
Manage', so if you can check if this sw can collect info from megaraid driver.
