This patch was dropped because it was nacked by the maintainer
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: cciss: add reboot notifier support to driver
From: "Mike Miller (OS Dev)" <mikem@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
This patch adds reboot_notifier support to cciss. Changes in firmware make
this patch essential. Without this patch there may be valid data left in the
controller's battery backed write cache (BBWC) on shutdown. We found out the
hard way that the kernel does not call our cleanup routines on shutdown or
reboot. It seems that only rmmod calls the cleanup. Please consider this for
inclusion.
