Subject: [PATCH 0/6] Add support of the HBA mode on HP Smart Array P410i co=
ntrollers

This series of patches adds support of the HBA mode on HP Smart Array P410i=
 RAID controllers.

This is not guaranteed to be correct as I do not have any access to documen=
tation on these controllers. However, this works fine for me on hardware th=
at I have. Also, these changes successfully passes blktests[1] and xfstests=
[2].

To make sure that this new functionality does not break anything, it is dis=
abled by default and may be enabled only manually using new module paramete=
r.

NAKing this series.
- The P410 controllers do not fully support HBA mode and we do not support =
adding it to the hpsa driver.
