I spent some time testing kdump. I had to disable IOMMU to get kexec/kdump to
work. Not sure why because neither the smartpqi driver nor our controllers care
about IOMMU settings.
So, this perhaps is a platform issue.
I used the following kdump settings:
/etc/default/grub.d/kdump-tools.cfg
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="$GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT
crashkernel=512M-:640M"
vi /etc/default/kdump-tools
KDUMP_KEXEC_ARGS="--elf64-core-headers"
#KDUMP_CMDLINE=""
KDUMP_CMDLINE_APPEND="reset_devices systemd.unit=kdump-tools-dump.service
nr_cpus=1 irqpoll nousb ata_piix.prefer_ms_hyperv=0 acpi_no_memhotplug numa=off
lapic pci=nommconf pci=biosirq nosmep mem_encrypt=off"
Not sure what all is really required, but kdump works with all of the above
settings.

All of my other tests looked good.
fio performance testing - No regressions.
reboot testing
configuration testing - (using our SSA tools to switch between RAID and HBA
mode)

The patches they provided only apply the hunk that applies to the SmartPQI
driver. This commit was a much wider commit that removes references to
MODULE_SUPPORTED_DEVICE in many drivers across the kernel.
6417f03132a6 module: remove never implemented MODULE_SUPPORTED_DEVICE
[Testing]
On machines equipped with SmartPQI SCSI controller:
1. reboot tests
2. insmod/rmmod tests
3. fio testing: no performance regressions
[Regression Risk]
Patchset changes only smartpqi driver so regression is limited to systems
equipped with this SCSI device. On such SmartPQI-equipped systems the patchset
can cause data corruption, data loss or unavailability of SCSI storage and boot
failure.
