It's all in Bug #14579, see
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14579

Basically, after a while writing to the tape drive that is attached to
the LSI controller, the bus either resets itself without finding the
tape drives again, or we get an oops and the system crashes. This is a
seperate problem from the one we have with the Adaptec RAID on 2.6.32,
that is the reason why we opened two bugs. 

If you can provide us with the current mptfusion, we can build it for
2.6.30 and test wether the bus reset and/or oops do still happen. If
they don't, you made a few people very happy :)
