And it turns out, using anything branded by HP is just asking for ulcers and 
headaches.

We replaced said HBAs with LSI^WAvago^WBroadcom HBAs - and everything started 
working as it should.
There are still hangs at 03:00 and 04:00 (when the snapshots that got deleted 
on the master get deleted on the slave) - but that's not really a problem 
because they are much shorter than before and nobody is using the system at 
that time.

So, while the H22x-cards are „close enough to a LSI2308-based card so that the 
driver actually thinks it’s a 2308 - they are in fact not.

Also, with the original LSI cards, you can use LSI’s FreeBSD flash utility and 
have a far better life overall.
