Originally the problem was that dev->adapter_shutdown was set after the
Shutdown command was sent to the controller, leading to a race
condition  If after the controller was shut down and before
 dev->adapter_shutdown  was set , the driver received  a AIF
 command from management tool , it  would still be sent to the 
controller in aac_cfg_ioctl() leading to a  IOP_RESET.

A fix would  be to set dev->adapter_shutdown at the very 
beginning of aac_send_shutdown().
