Subject: [GIT PATCH] SCSI fixes for 2.6.25-rc8

This patch constitutes three bug fixes (the reversion of the BSG queue
fix is the most serious; without it we're getting eventual corruption in
systems).  The other two fix error legs or misleading reporting.  The
remaining 8 patches are all updates to the mvsas driver which was a late
addition at the -rc1 phase, so while they're not truly bug fixes, they
are enhancements to make that unreleased driver more roubust for 2.6.25.

The patch is here:

master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi-rc-fixes-2.6.git

The short changelog is:

James Bottomley (2):
      libsas: Warn if ATA device detected but CONFIG_SCSI_SAS_ATA not set
      Revert " fix bsg queue oops with iscsi logout"

James Smart (1):
      hosts.c: fixes for "no error" reported after error scenarios

Ke Wei (8):
      mvsas: check subsystem id
      mvsas: get phy info.
      mvsas: fix the buffer of rx DMA overflow bug
      mvsas: retry aborting task.
      mvsas: check hd whether unplugged
      mvsas : interrupt handling
      mvsas: a tag handler implementation
      mvsas: fill in error info record and phy mode6 bits.
