[SCSI] megaraid_{mm,mbox}: init fix for kdump
1. Changes in Initialization to fix kdump failure. Send SYNC command on loading. This command clears the pending commands in the adapter and re-initialize its internal RAID structure. Without this change, megaraid driver either panics or fails to initialize the adapter during kdump's second kernel boot if there are pending commands or interrupts from other devices sharing the same IRQ. 2. Authors email-id domain name changed from lsil.com to lsi.com. Also modified the MODULE_AUTHOR to megaraidlinux@lsi.com Signed-off-by: Sumant Patro <sumant.patro@lsi.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
