As I have submitted the BZ, so I am updating test result status received from 
DELL team for the above test kernels.

Both focal & groovy test kernels got tested on Globemaster platform &
power edge platforms and results are positive and no issue is found
during the testing.

Below are the main test cases that got executed during the testing and
results of these test cases are positive,

1. All drives on Dual topology Enumerated in OS
2. LED Blink/Unblink from Perccli 
3. IO stress for 5Hrs
4. Controller reset and drive enumeration
5. Reboot loop
6. IO Stress over the Weekend

@DELL Team - If I have missed any thing then please update the missed
info here.

Thanks,
Sreekanth

Bug description:
  Request to include patch set "PATCH 00/14] mpt3sas: Add support for
  multi-port path topology" which will support the topologies where
  zoning is enabled in the expander as shown below,

          Zone 1             Zone 2
   |-----------------|   |----------------|
   |  HD1 ..... HD25 |   | HD26 ......HD50|
   | |==================================| |
   | |               |   |              | |
   | |              Expander            | |
   | |==================================| |
   |           |     |   |    |           |
   |-----------|-----|   |----|-----------|
             x8|              |x8 
        _______|______________|_______
        |            HBA             |
        |____________________________|
   
  Current driver doesn't support this type of topology and will add only one 
zoned drives to the OS. So to support these types of topology we need below 
patch set in the driver.
  https://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=160226366707807&w=2

  So, requesting you include this patch for next upcoming Ubuntu kernel
  release.

  Currently we have posted this patch set to upstream community and they
  yet to review this patch set. Meanwhile If I get the base kernel
  source code for next upcoming Ubuntu kernel then I can prepare the
  patches over this base kernel source and share it in this BZ.

  Thanks,
  Sreekanth
