** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  Most Ubuntu customers prefer the simplicity of using inbox drivers over 
out-of-box drivers Microsemi provides.  To do that well, we should keep that 
inbox driver moving forward.  If we don't land the updates in 18.04.4 customers 
would be waiting until ~ August 2020 for the 18.04.5 update.
  
  Microsemi have asked to have them pulled into 5.3 to update the SmartPQI
  driver that we carry.
  
  [Fixes]
  The following patches are in 5.4 Mainline and also our Focal tree are all 
clean cherry picks into 5.3.
  
  391a24179423 scsi: smartpqi: bump version
  48edb8780100 scsi: smartpqi: update copyright
  63a7956ae1e8 scsi: smartpqi: add new pci ids

  8bdb3b9c67c5 scsi: smartpqi: add pci ids for fiberhome controller

  All are clean cherry-picks into Eoan/master-next from 5.4 and do not
  touch anything outside of Microsemi's smartpqi driver.
  
  These have been cherry picked into my branch found here:
