MPT fusion driver initialization fails while second kernel is booting,
after a system crash (if kdump kernel is configured). Oops message is
pasted below.

*******************************************************************************
o Kdump capture kernel boot fails during initialization of MPT fusion driver.
(LSI Logic / Symbios Logic SAS1064E PCI-Express Fusion-MPT SAS (rev 01))
o Problem is easily reproducible, if system crashed while some disk activity
like cp operation was going on.
o After a system crash, devices are not shutdown and capture kernel starts
booting while skipping BIOS. Hence underlying device is left in operational
state. In this case scsi contoller was left with interrupt line asserted
reply FIFO was not empty. When driver starts initializing in the second
kernel, it receives the interrupt the moment request_irq() is called.
Interrupt handler, reads the message from reply FIFO and tries to access
the associated message frame and panics, as in the new kernel's context
that message frame is not valid at all.
o In this scenario, probably we should delay the request_irq() call. First
bring up the IOC, reset it if needed and then should register for irq.
o I have tested the patch with SAS1064E and 53c1030 controllers.
