[SCSI] aacraid: Restart adapter on firmware assert (Update 2)
Received from Mark Salyzyn If the adapter should be in a blinkled (Firmware Assert) state when the driver loads, we will perform a warm restart of the Adapter Firmware to see if we can rescue the adapter. Possible causes of a blinkled can occur on some early release motherboard BIOSes, transitory PCI bus problems on embedded systems or non-x86 based architectures, transitory startup failures of early release drives or transitory hardware failures; some of which can bite the adapter later at runtime. Future enhancements will include recovery during runtime. Fixed extra whitespace space issue.
