Stratus noticed a similar crash (hang actually) earlier this week when removing
a single SAS disk as part of a RAID 1 MD mirror.  In our instance, the all CPUs
were idle, except one that was running scsi_target_reap and another waiting on
RCU synchronize_sched.  Since the former function was stuck in some loop, RCU
stalled and the machine wedged.  Another Stratus engineer noticed patch [1],
and once applied to our kernel, MD/mpt2sas disk removal no longer hung the
machine.
