Re: Megaraid abort errors

[Mark Lord]

Well, there's this bug (patch below) in the megaraid driver,
but it only affects certain architectures.

* * *

The SCSI megaraid drive goes to great effort to kmap
the scatterlist buffer (if used), but then uses the
wrong pointer when copying to it afterward.
