Bug#754855: linux-image-3.14-1-amd64: backport PowerEdge VRTX driver from 3.15 to 3.14 kernel

Version: 3.14.12-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

If the 3.14 kernel will be the kernel for Jessie, please consider backporting support for the Dell PowerEdge VRTX storage.

Support for this was first introduced with the 3.15 kernel in the following commit:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=229fe47cd046ef2d01c13298293cda9693811417

This driver allows Linux on the VRTX blades to access the shared storage in the enclosure.

Regards,

Rik
