--- Comment #1 from kernel-bugzilla.20.drkshadow@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ---
The issue turned out to be hardware: Some combination of flashing the firmware
and BIOS caused all disks to register.

I did get the 18.00.00.00 driver to compile under 3.13.6, however it gave me
its own problems: as I attempted to dd if="$f" of="$f" bs=65536 across every
disk in the system simultaneously, the system would, after 20-30 minutes, lock
solid. (This process proceeded fine if of=/dev/null; I'm doing this to find
disks that I know have sector errors.) I have no dmesg output. Further,
modprobe -r was _very_ slow on this driver, eventually printing to dmesg a
trace including "warn_slowpath_fmt".

Attached is a basic patch to get the new LSI driver to compile under 3.13.6,
but no guarantees as to the quality of anything.
