Subject: [Regression] mptsas won't boot with 2.6.35-rc2

With 2.6.35-rc2 one of my LS21 boxes stopped booting. I'm seeing:

Fusion MPT SAS Host driver 3.04.15
mptsas 0000:03:04.0: can't find IRQ for PCI INT A; probably buggy MP table
mptbase: ioc0: Initiating bringup
ioc0: LSISAS1064 A3: Capabilities={Initiator}
mptbase: ioc0: WARNING - Issuing Reset from mpt_config!!
mptbase: ioc0: Attempting Retry Config request type 0x1, page 0x2, action 0
mptbase: ioc0: WARNING - Issuing Reset from mpt_config!!
mptbase: ioc0: Initiating recovery
mptbase: ioc0: Attempting Retry Config request type 0x1, page 0x2, action 0

Where as 2.6.34 with the same .config boots fine:

Fusion MPT SAS Host driver 3.04.14
mptsas 0000:03:04.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19
mptbase: ioc0: Initiating bringup

ehci_hcd 0000:00:03.2: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 1

...

Although from the warning, this may be irq routing related, not driver
related. Any suggestions?

thanks
