Subject: Re: mpt2sas driver barfs when force removing a drive on 3.13.1

Hi Sreekanth,

There hasn't been much recent activity in
drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_sas.c, so I wasn't sure who could best
review the patch.

Dan Williams added sas_rphy_unlink() back in 2011, perhaps he can
remember why sas_bsg_remove wasn't performed there?

Regards,

-- Joe
