Server panicked (Panic String : BAD TRAP: type=31 rp=2a101f4d480 addr=8 mmu_fsr=0 occurred in module "vxdmp" due to a NULL pointer dereference)

Problem

 Server was panicked with the following panic string :

BAD TRAP: type=31 rp=2a101f4d480 addr=8 mmu_fsr=0 occurred in module "vxdmp" due to a NULL pointer dereference

Cause

The panic occurs as the inconsistence of dmpdb/devlist between vxesd and vold/vxdmp. When panic occurs, because of SAN outage/restore, devices were lost then detected in vxesd but they were not in vold/vxdmp. Thus, if we issue device map updates from vxesd, the dmpnode may do not exists in vxdmp, panic occurs.
