James, Do you get the chances to look at and apply our megaraid sas patches (5 patches) to upstream? The patches I submitted is the version 4.31. We have more patches need to submit after those patches accepted to upstream.

Those patches already accepted by rhel and sles. Our customers are also asking us when they can be accepted by upstream. Can you give us the hand?
