I quickly checked my dmesg logs and I'm not seeing that particular
message, could be that newer kernels only started warning about it?

I'm not seeing any references to the
scsih_get_enclosure_logicalid_chassis_slot() function in the code here,
so there is obviously a newer driver in newer kernels.  The scsih_get_*
calls I do see is in mpt3sas_scsih.c and I'm not seeing (direct) calls
to _config_request at all.  At least it seems there is activity on the
driver, which is always a good sign that someone is attending to problems.

I'll queue an upgrade to 4.16 so long for when it's released in a couple
of days/weeks.

Kind Regards,
Jaco
