Patch for Backport of the Linux MegaRAID driver for SAS based RAID controllers for Debian Stretch



Package: linux-image-4.9.0-5-amd64
Version: 4.9.65-3+deb9u2

Dear kernel Mantainers,

backport of the megaraid_sas driver from kernel branch 4.14.x to kernel branch 4.9.x

Scope:

Debian stretch use kernel branch 4.9.x

megaraid_sas driver inside kernel branch 4.9.x does not have support for SAS3508
MegaRAID adapter in question whereas driver inside kernel branch 4.14.x does have support
for SAS3508 MR adapter. Only way to resolve this problem is: backport driver
with support for this SAS3508 MR adapter to kernel branch 4.9.x


Hardware:

DMI: Intel Corporation S2600WFT/S2600WFT, BIOS SE5C620.86B.00.01.0009.101920170742 10/19/2017

Test: 

I copy /usr/src/linux-4.14.20/drivers/scsi/megaraid/ to /usr/ser/linux-4.9.82/drivers/scsi/megaraid/
I compile the kernel 4.9.82, and the result is OK!

It is possible a kernel patch for that ?

I atached dmesg for Debian Buster on kernel 4.9.82

Thank you,
Doru Iorgulescu
