The ioc->pfacts member in the IOC structure is getting set to zero following a call to _base_get_ioc_facts due to the memset in that routine. So if the ioc->pfacts was read after a host reset, there would be a NULL pointer dereference. The routine _base_get_ioc_facts is called from context of host reset. The problem in _base_get_ioc_facts is the size of Mpi2IOCFactsReply is 64, whereas the sizeof "struct mpt2sas_facts" is 60, so there is a four byte overflow resulting from the memset. Also, there is memset in _base_get_port_facts using the incorrect structure, it should be "struct mpt2sas_port_facts" instead of Mpi2PortFactsReply.
