cciss: forbid hard reset of 640x boards
cciss: forbid hard reset of 640x boards The 6402/6404 are two PCI devices -- two Smart Array controllers -- that fit into one slot. It is possible to reset them independently, however, they share a battery backed cache module. One of the pair controls the cache and the 2nd one access the cache through the first one. If you reset the one controlling the cache, the other one will not be a happy camper. So we just forbid resetting this conjoined mess. Signed-off-by: Stephen M. Cameron <scameron@beardog.cce.hp.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>
