I don't think the patch I sent would change anything, it's just a plain
protection against a null pointer dereference so that we can get
debugging traces. With this patch you should be able to run with CAM
debugging options, and from there we can hopefully diagnose the exact
cause of the problems you're seeing.

Thomas.
