[pca] Heads up on another patch

[Don O'Malley]

Thanks Drew!

So, just to confirm; this issue is introduced in 143645-03?
Should that be 143645-13 by any chance?
Is so, then I think the affected revisions are 143645 revs 13, 14, 15, 
16 & 146232 revs 08, 09, 12, 13.

I'll get a README note added to these patches to serve as a heads-up to 
customers.

Does the following sound about right:

	Please do not apply this patch to systems running iSCSI that use Challenge Handshake
	Authentication Protocol (CHAP), as CHAP is not compatible with this patch revision.

	The fix for the underlying problem (CR 7031995) is delivered in patch 146232-14.
	Please install patch 146232-14 in the place of this one on systems running iSCSI
	that are using CHAP.


I've followed up on patch 146232-14 and it is due to be released later 
today, so should hit MOS overnight.

Best,
-Don
