+Release Date    : Mon Apr 11 12:27:22 EST 2006 - Seokmann Ju <sju@lsil.com>
+Current Version : 2.20.4.8 (scsi module), 2.20.2.6 (cmm module)
+Older Version   : 2.20.4.7 (scsi module), 2.20.2.6 (cmm module)

+1.      Fixed a bug in megaraid_reset_handler().
+        Customer reported "Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference
+        at virtual address 00000000" when system goes to reset condition
+        for some reason. It happened randomly.
+        Root Cause: in the megaraid_reset_handler(), there is possibility not
+        returning pending packets in the pend_list if there are multiple
+        pending packets.
+        Fix: Made the change in the driver so that it will return all packets
+        in the pend_list.
+
+2.      Added change request.
+        As found in the following URL, rmb() only didn't help the
+        problem. I had to increase the loop counter to 0xFFFFFF. (6 F's)
+        http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=110971060502497&w=2
+
+        I attached a patch for your reference, too.
+        Could you check and get this fix in your driver?
+
+        Best Regards,
+        Jun'ichi Nomura
