Public bug reported:
This is a request to update the SmartPQI driver in Ubuntu kernel 18.04.2 by
pulling the following patches from upstream kernel version 4.19-rc7.
Microsemi would like added to Ubuntu 18.04.2 to bring the driver up to date
with kernel.org and to
correct issues seen particularly on ARM systems.
These patches cherry-pick cleanly from:
