We have some spare hardware with a H740P installed. Would having access to the 
IDRAC to run some tests help?

Subject: Backport of Perc 740/840 for Stretch

Hi,
I've pulled a number of upstream commits for the megaraid_sas driver which add 
support for the Perc 740/840 RAID controllers to the Stretch kernel.

Successfully tested with a H840 on a current Dell PowerEdge R440 and I've also 
tested the built kernel on a system which was previously supported by the 
megaraid_sas driver (LSI MegaRAID SAS 2008 (Perc H310 Mini)) and that continues 
to work fine as well.

Test debs (I'd appreciate more tests on MegaRAID controllers, the 740 should be 
identical to the 840 except that it allows for less drives) are at 
https://people.debian.org/~jmm/perc/

Merge request at https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/linux/merge_requests/61

Cheers,
        Moritz
