scsi subsystem with ipr driver fails to initialize with every kernel >=3.0.9 and >=3.1.1

well, it seems this was already fixed by one of these two commits (only for linux-3.2):
[SCSI] ipr: Stop reading adapter dump prematurely
commit	41e9a69641fb3fa86fa9277a179f3ad261d072f7
[SCSI] ipr: Fix BUG on adapter dump timeout
commit	4c647e909fceb9df8ec8f06016dd56244045a929

indeed YDL_Powerstation scsi ctrl has no issue with linux-3.2-rc3 .
Thus i guess also other platforms can work fine.

cheers,
