Subject: hpsa: do not attempt to read from a write-only register
From: Stephen M. Cameron <[email protected]>
Most smartarrays tolerate it, but a few new ones don't.
When the controller doesn't tolerate the bug, the firmware on it locks up.
No interrupts are received, no commands complete. I/o on that controller
grinds to a halt.
