The kexec patch introduced a superfluous (and otherwise inert) reset of some adapters. The register can have a hardware default value that has zeros for the undefined interrupts. This patch refines the test of the interrupt enable register to focus on only the interrupts that affect the driver in order to detect if an incomplete shutdown of the Adapter had occurred (kdump). ObligatoryDisclaimer: Please accept my condolences regarding Outlook's handling of patches. Dynamic fast paced public patches create confusion. This attached patch is against current scsi-misc-2.6 *after* either the aacraid_kexec_5 or the aacraid_kexec_fix patches have propagated. The reason for supplying this patch in this manner is to recognize the lower priority of this patch, the dependence and to survive cleanly the sequencing and the overlap of patch application. James, say the word and I can provide an aacraid_kexec_6 with this rolled in, but my goal is NOT to delay aacraid_kexec_5 (or aacraid_kexec_fix as applied to aacraid_kexec_2 which currently is in scsi-misc-2.6 and 2.6.21-rc6-mm1+) from propagating otherwise.
