Subject: [PATCH 0/5] Intel SAS controller support for IMSM

This series introduces support for Intel SAS controller (isci module)
built in Intel(R) Patsburg chipset. IMSM handler blocks mixing
devices attached to different type of controllers in the same
container. This standard operation maintains compatibility between
Linux and Windows IMSM RAID stacks and allows for boot support from
Optional ROM. User can set IMSM_NO_PLATFORM environment variable to
block the standard operation. 


Marcin Labun (5):
  imsm platform: support for Intel(R) SAS controller.
  imsm: support for Intel(R) SAS controller in imsm handler
  imsm: prepare detail_platform_imsm to support different types of
controllers imsm: detail_platform_imsm supports Intel SAS controller
(isci driver) imsm: support for Intel SAS controller in
get_disk_controller_domain handler

I have applied all of these.
However I must confess that I don't really understand them so I haven't
done any significant review.
