Will this patch be making its way in to the kernel? The Dells are still
shipping with cards that have no drivers (this pciconf -v -l is from a
1750):

none0 at pci0:8:0: class=0xff0000 card=0x000c1028 chip=0x000c1028 rev=0x00
hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'Dell Computer Corporation'
    device   = 'Embedded Systems Management Device 4'
none1 at pci0:8:1: class=0xff0000 card=0x00081028 chip=0x00081028 rev=0x00
hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'Dell Computer Corporation'
    device   = 'PowerEdge 3/Di Expandable RAID Controller'
none2 at pci0:8:2: class=0xff0000 card=0x00091028 chip=0x00091028 rev=0x00
hdr=0x00
    vendor   = 'Dell Computer Corporation'

It'd be most excellent to be able to tweak RAC options via a serial port.
Would card=0x000c1028 also be something we could(should?) access via sio?
