For now I am looking for input from linux community regarding approach
used in my solution.
I will convert RFC to PATCH and most suitable header I will attach with
each patch. Hope it is OK.

Current RFC has changes included for mpt3sas. Same logic will be followed
for megaraid_sas as well. Just for reference I have posted changes of
mpt3sas and not included megaraid_sas.
