I've finally put my hands on this.
So far, so good (although the box is not in production yet).
I've noticed some delay at boot, although I cannot tell if this is mfi 
related.

Here's the requested feedback:

Of course it's detected as a generic LSI MegaSAS 1078, since the 
specific PCI IDs are not there. No problem here: I'm reporting them just 
in case you want to include them in an updated driver version.

I really like mfiutil. Any chance it will be merged into 7.x?

If you need other data, just ask :-)
