[PATCH 00/12] hpsa updates

[Don Brace]

These patches are based on Linus's tree

These patches are for: 
 - Multipath failover support in general.

The changes are:
 - update identify physical device structure
   - align with FW
 - stop getting enclosure info for externals
   - no BMIC support
 - update reset handler
   - update to match out of box driver
 - do not reset enclosures
   - reset can sometimes hang
 - rescan later if reset in progress
   - wait for devices to settle.
 - correct resets on retried commands
   - was not calling scsi_done on retried completion
 - correct queue depth for externals
   - Code not in correct function
 - separate monitor events from heartbeat worker
   - allows driver to check for changes more frequently
     without affecting controller lockup detection.
 - send ioaccel requests with 0 length down raid path
   - avoid hang issues for customers running older FW.
 - remove abort handler
   - align driver with our out of box driver
 - bump driver version
   - align version with out of box driver for multi-path changes

[PATCH 00/12] hpsa updates

[Don Brace]

These patches are based on Linus's tree

The changes are:

hpsa: update discovery polling
 - Correct corner case for RBODs with no initial volumes.

hpsa: add controller checkpoint
 - Provide method to generate a controller checkpoint.

hpsa: change timeout for internal cmds
 - There are times when the default time-out value has
   proven to be too small.

hpsa: correct smart path enabled
 - Correct some corner cases where the ioaccel path is not
   re-enabled after a multipath failover or a transformation.

hpsa: update queue depth for externals
 - A re-scan can change the queue-depth of external
   logical volumes.

hpsa: reduce warning messages on device removal
 - Repeated warnings are not necessary.

hpsa: correct logical volume removal
 - Also check for outstanding commands during logical volume removal.

hpsa: add enclosure logical identifier
 - Populate sysfs enclosure_identifier.

hpsa: destroy sas transport properties before scsi_host
 - This patch was proposed by Martin Wilck on 10/21/2016:
   https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg102085.html
 - but had no effect until Hannes's patch:
   commit 9441284fbc39 ("scsi-fixup-kernel-warning-during-rmmod")
   was applied to the kernel.
 - Re-submitting with Martin Wilck's permission.

hpsa: cleanup sas_phy structures in sysfs when unloading
 - This patch was proposed by Martin Wilck on 10/21/2016:
   https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg102083.html
 - cleans up dangling symlinks in sysfs.
 - Re-submitting with Martin Wilck's permission.

hpsa: clear tmpdevice in scan thread
 - Clean up some meta data issues for devices during a re-scan.

hpsa: bump driver version
