Subject: [ 024/108] [SCSI] mpt2sas: Fix for issue - Unable to boot from the drive
 connected to HBA

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "sreekanth.reddy@....com" <sreekanth.reddy@....com>

commit 10cce6d8b5af0b32bc4254ae4a28423a74c0921c upstream.

This patch checks whether HBA is SAS2008 B0 controller.
if it is a SAS2008 B0 controller then it use IO-APIC interrupt instead of MSIX,
as SAS2008 B0 controller doesn't support MSIX interrupts.
