Alright, my bad.  Apologies to all.  So, it turns out that this controller
is not recognized in 12.0, but is recognized by later stable-12 builds.
I have another problem that prevented 12.1 from booting at all, and I tried
investigating both at the same time.  This caused me to confuse things.
My error.

Thanks to all, and this seems to be working in stable-12 in the neighborhood
of Oct 2019, perhaps earlier.
