Re: mpt2sas + raid10 goes boom

Hello everyone,

an update: I was able to reproduce the problem on my testing
machine (at least sort of) and confirmed that
  c8dc9c6 md: raid1,10: Handle REQ_WRITE_SAME flag in write bios
fixes things.
Also applied c8dc9c6 to the main system's 3.8.6 kernel. Working without
any issues.

One interesting detail: on the testing system's 9240-8i lsi controller
(megaraid_sas instead of mpt2sas driver) the log messages where
different and seemingly not coming from controller errors:

Apr  9 12:59:17 kernel: bio too big device sdb (4096 > 256)
Apr  9 12:59:17 kernel: md12: WRITE SAME failed. Manually zeroing.

Whereas the lsi 9211-8i gave these messages:

[ 2772.726292] mpt2sas0: log_info(0x31120320): originator(PL), code(0x12), sub_code(0x0320)

[ 2774.452636] md3: WRITE SAME failed. Manually zeroing.

The former one looks a lot more friendly to me.

@lsi guys: this reveals a bug in the mpt2sas driver and/or
           the 9211&co series firmware, correct?

Thanks everyone for your help so far,
Matthias
