Actually, I looked in your mvi->rx_fis area where the D2H FIS should be
and there seems to be a correct one collected.  The problem is that if
the slot returns RXQ_ERR without any other flags set (other than the
slot number), the driver does nothing.  Shouldn't the slot be completed
and the D2H FIS returned so we can then do a request sense?
