Public bug reported:

This is a request to update the SmartPQI driver in Ubuntu kernel 18.04.2 by
pulling the following patches from upstream kernel version 4.19-rc7.

Microsemi would like added to Ubuntu 18.04.2 to bring the driver up to date 
with kernel.org and to 
correct issues seen particularly on ARM systems.

These patches cherry-pick cleanly from:
