I'm almost sure it's onboard controller (cannot check, machine is available 
remotely only).  It's Intel SR1550 server.

Anyway I found a option in normal BIOS to disable "intel swraid" and now it is 
detected nicely by mptsas without any new_id tweaks (becomes visible under 
pciid already known to mptsas).

Thanks!
