The following five commits are the only patches needed, since 18.04.2
will be based on the upstream 4.18 kernel, which already contains the
other requested commits:
957c5ab108c7 ("scsi: smartpqi: improve handling for sync requests")
26b390aba2a8 ("scsi: smartpqi: improve error checking for sync requests")
9f8d05fa9844 ("scsi: smartpqi: add inspur advantech ids")
dac12fbc7b0a ("scsi: smartpqi: fix critical ARM issue reading PQI index
registers")
4ae5e9d159f8 ("scsi: smartpqi: bump driver version to 1.1.4-130")
** Description changed:
+
+ == SRU Justification ==
+ Microsemi is requesting these five patches to be added to 18.04.2 to bring
+ the driver up to date with kernel.org and to correct issues seen
+ particularly on ARM systems. The 18.04.2 kernel will be 4.18 bases, so
+ this SRU request is for Cosmic.
+
+ All five of these commits cherry pick cleanly and are in mainline as of
+ v4.19-rc1.

+
+ == Regression Potential ==
