Now that 10.2-RELEASE is out, I'm looking at it more closely as well.

There was another bug report at FreeNAS related to this which appeared 
to lead to more concrete evidence of firmware 20.00.00.00 being "bad":

https://bugs.freenas.org/issues/7384

the nexenta reference (which seems to include LSI acknowledging a fault) 
can be found here:

I was running FreeBSD 9.3 and certainly saw bad behaviour with firmware 
20.00.00.00, while 19.00.00.00 and 16.00.00.00 both seemed ok.

Anyway it would be nice if there could be some kind of reassurance that 
20.00.00.04 is indeed fixed and safe to use, as it seems we are intended 
to use firmware matching the v20 driver in 10.2. I couldn't find any 
firmware release notes.
