[PATCH 0/2 v2] Fixes for memory corruption in mpt2sas

[Calvin Owens]

Hello all,

This patchset attempts to address problems we've been having with
panics due to memory corruption from the mpt2sas driver.

Thanks,
Calvin

Patches in this series:
[PATCH 1/2] mpt2sas: Refcount sas_device objects and fix unsafe list usage
[PATCH 2/2] mpt2sas: Refcount fw_events and fix unsafe list usage

Changes since v1:
	* Squished patches 1-3 and 4-6 into two patches
	* s/BUG_ON(!spin_is_locked/assert_spin_locked/g
	* Use more succinct fuction names
	* Store a pointer to the sas_device object in ->hostdata to eliminate
	  the need for several lookups on the lists.
	* Remove the fw_event from fw_event_list at the start of
	  _firmware_event_work()
	* Explicitly separate fw_event_list removal from fw_event freeing
