Cover letter [PATCH 0/2] Fix a couple hpsa bugs related to device discovery

This series fixes a couple of bugs related to discovering changes to devices. 1) We should not consider a firmware change to mean the device identity has changed. Just because a logical drive's firmware changes doesn't mean it's not the same drive with the same data, so it should not be removed and re-added to the scsi mid layer.
2) Likewise if the RAID level is observed to change. This can happen for instance by doing a RAID level migration from with the Array Configuration Utility.
