As far as the "why" is concerned:  _All_ scsi controller
drivers reset their busses at first, in order to reset
all devices to a well-known state.  Then they wait a
short time, in order to give the devices an opportunity
to finish their reset, then the busses are scanned for
devices.

Well, at least that's who the scsi controller drivers
work that I've used in the past (not including mpt), but
I guess it's basically the same for all of them.

So, the bus reset during boot is perfectly normal.

Best regards
