LSI MegaRAID 1068 mfi(4) 6.1-RELEASE

[Brian A. Seklecki]

mfi(4) is the SAS driver for newer LSI/AMI controllers in the 9th gen Dell 
and probably some stand-alone boards on the market.

It's relatively new.  Be sure you're running a new RELENG_6 snapshot for 
quality support.

Also, let me know if you can get the Linux Emulation based CLI in 
ports/sysutils to work.  It doesn't work for me and I don't have a lot of 
free time to punt around with it (ktrace).
