Update hisilicon SoC-specific drivers

[dann frazier]

[Impact]
Drivers for the HiSilicon Hi1616 and Hi1620 SoCs continue to be under active development, including both hardware enablement and bug fix patches. With the amount of flux involved, identifying and cherry-picking individual patches would be more error prone then re-syncing with current upstream.

[Test Case]
The Ubuntu server certification suite, which includes network and storage tests.

[Fix]
Backport the localized driver changes up to v5.0-rc1.

[Regression Risk]
These changes are restricted to the hns and hisi_sas drivers, which only impact the D05 and D06 server development board platforms. To mitigate this risk, we have explicitly tested the proposed changes on these 2 platforms - changes are staged in ppa:pearl2-team/test. Of course, there is risk that these changes introduced regressions that our testing did not catch.

[Ubuntu Kernel Bot (ubuntu-kernel-bot)]

This bug is missing log files that will aid in diagnosing the problem. While running an Ubuntu kernel (not a mainline or third-party kernel) please enter the following command in a terminal window:

apport-collect 1810457

and then change the status of the bug to 'Confirmed'.

If, due to the nature of the issue you have encountered, you are unable to run this command, please add a comment stating that fact and change the bug status to 'Confirmed'.

This change has been made by an automated script, maintained by the Ubuntu Kernel Team.

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-cosmic' to 'verification-done-cosmic'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-cosmic' to 'verification-failed-cosmic'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Guess what! These changes... regressed my hardware.

With 4.15.0-43-generic, I have functional networking via hns_enet_drv, and on 4.15.0-45-generic I have... no networking. Huawei TaiShan XR320 blade in Huawei TaiShan X6000 chassis.

[Jo Shields (directhex)]

Mainline 5.0rc8 kernel is fine, so it's either something that was broken in mainline between rc1 (when this patch was applied in ubuntu) and rc8, or a general bug in the backporting.

Thanks for the report. Please provide a new bug report in which to
track these issues, and note the LP # here.
Also, please confirm that you are using the latest firmware for your device.
