LSI 9211 driver

[Gergely CZUCZY]

Dear Scott and John,

Thank you very much for your quick and helpful reply.

mps(4) does seem to recognize the card, and the disks showed up
properly, so far. Currently i'm loading it from loader.conf, and
putting it inside the kernel config doesn't work, though i think i
just have to insert that somewhere.

I'll test the drivers a bit more when the remaining 6 disks arrive.

Thank you very much again.

Best regards,
Gergely
