Setting linux kernel boot parameter pci=conf1 allows my Intel RAID Controller-RMS25PB080 (LSI 2208/Fusion based) to be detected, and the FW to transition to Ready state. Without this setting the Card FW responds only with 0xF0000000 Fault (Masked).
I found linux kernel series 3.0.0, properly discovered and used the RAID card. Things broke in kernel series 3.2.0, onward. So this means in my Intel s2600 system, using the Intel/LSI card I have confirmed broken PCI discovery in kernels 3.2 up to current day 3.7.1 kernels.
