I forgot to mention in previous email, we can't just delete
the handling of MPI_EVENT_RAID_RC_DOMAIN_VAL_NEEDED asyn event.

Someone that has a degraded fault tolerant array, such as RAID1 or
RAID1E, will have poor performance(asyn narrow) once they replace the failed
drive with an optimal drive.  This event is needed so when the new
drive is added, we can perform domain validation on the hidden disk.
Thus James, can you handle notifying the spi transport layer of this new
disk?
