2.6.25-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: James Bottomley commit 081a5bcb39b455405d58f79bb3c9398a9d4477ed upstream The problem here is that if the ioc faults too early in the bring up sequence (as it usually does for an irq routing problem), ioc_reset gets called before the scsi host is even allocated. This causes an oops when it later schedules a renegotiation. Fix this by checking ioc->sh before trying to renegotiate.
