v1.1 allows finer grained tuning of the SSC (spread-spectrum-clocking)
settings for SAS and SATA. See notes in probe_roms.h
v1.3 allows the attenuation of the attached cables to be specified to
the driver in terms of 'short', 'medium', and 'long' (see probe_roms.h).
These settings (per phy) are retrieved from the platform oem-parameters
(BIOS rom), the fallback firmware blob, or via a module parameter
override.

isci requires a parameter blob which is usually found in NVRAM, but it
can fall back to loading with request_firmware(). These files are
taken from the Linux source tree where they were wrongly added in
Linux 3.0.
