Understood. The problem is that the megaraid_mbox driver is not
working for various cards with these IDs, whereas the legacy driver is
believed to work for all of them.

Note that this patch also alters megaraid_mbox to avoid an overlap in
device support.

I've sent a call out to the various reporters to find out what exactly
the failure mode(s) is with megaraid_mbox, which can be found in the
bug report:

  http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=317258

So far there's just one response about timeouts during
initialization. I expect to see at least one more response this week.
