This is a siis(4) card -- chances are he can't turn it off.  :-)  We
really need a backtrace to see what transpired.

The siis(4) driver may have crashed as a result of LUN timeouts.  The
driver shouldn't panic, I agree, but the port timing out is of major
concern.  I imagine this behaviour (the crash) could be reproduced even
if UFS2 was used and the timeout took place.
