The patches themselves look fine.  However, there's a problem which I
just discovered on putting it together and taking it for a test spin:
the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE directive is still in mptbase.  This means that
the udev/hotplug system thinks that when it's loaded mptbase
everything's done, which now means that everyone loses their devices
since the upper drivers aren't loaded.  To make this all work and keep
the distros happy, the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE has to be split out and
placed into the mptspi or mptfc components.
