Title:
  Precise crashes hard when HP array rebuilds

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  We've long suspected that on certain hardware, Precise will crash
  entirely when certain events (such as "the array has finished
  rebuilding") come from the HP storage array.

  On a ProLiant SL335s G7 running 3.2.0-33-generic amd64 on Ubuntu
  12.04.1 LTS, we noticed this with more conclusive information.  The
  system in question is an openstack compute node, and we pulled the
  following out of its logs:

   {'class': 'POST Message',
    'count': 1,
    'description': 'POST Error: 1716-Slot X Drive Array - Unregenerable Media Errors Detected on Drives during previous Rebuild or Auto-Reliability Monitoring (ARM) scan. Problem will be fixed automatically when the sector(s) are overwritten.',
    'initial_update': '01/10/2013 17:09',
    'last_update': '01/10/2013 17:09',
    'severity': 'Caution'}]

  This corresponded with the system crash.
