I'm not familiar with that exact LSI chip, but most every LSI Logic 
Fusion-MPT controller I've seen yet has worked just fine with the 
default RHEL drivers.

have you configured the drives in the BIOS of the SAS ?I believe you 
have to set them to be JBOD for everything to be happy, the raid modes 
on those LSI chips is generaly fake-raid with some hardware assist.
