Bug Description
[IMPACT]
Feature request to update the SmartPQI driver in Focal to 1.2.10-025
Microchip produces the Smart Storage controllers that are used by several major OEMs we partner with. There is a new generation of controller coming to market later this summer. While customers will be able to use these new controllers with the driver as it is in Focal today, they will be missing several bug fixes and enhancements that have already landed upstream in 5.5. For this reason, Microchip and HPE have asked us to pull these patches to update the SmartPQI driver in Focal to the current upstream version.
[FIXES]
These are the recommended patches from Microchip that should be cherry-picked from mainline.

[REGRESSION RISK]
Low - Focal is not yet released, this is not being backported to current releases, patches pick cleanly and have been tested by the upstream maintainers.
