Bug description:
  [IMPACT]
  Feature request to update the SmartPQI driver in Focal to 1.2.10-025
  Microchip produces the Smart Storage controllers that are used by several 
major OEMs we partner with.  There is a new generation of controller coming to 
market later this summer.  While customers will be able to use these new 
controllers with the driver as it is in Focal today, they will be missing 
several bug fixes and enhancements that have already landed upstream in 5.5.  
For this reason, Microchip and HPE have asked us to pull these patches to 
update the SmartPQI driver in Focal to the current upstream version.

  [FIXES]
  These are the recommended patches from Microchip that should be cherry-picked 
from mainline.

  1c6294858950 scsi: smartpqi: remove set but not used variable 'ctrl_info'

branch here:

  [TESTING]
  modinfo for smartpqi should show:

  version:        1.2.10-025
  description:    Driver for Microsemi Smart Family Controller version 
1.2.10-025

  [REGRESSION RISK]
  Low - Focal is not yet released, this is not being backported to current 
releases, patches pick cleanly and have been tested by the upstream maintainers.
