feat: update latest version for hpsa
Found another bug with cciss_vol_status - if there is a "gap" in the list of reported physical drives (for example a drive that has gone offline), then "cciss_vol_status" seems to stop printing drives at that entry... You can see that if you enable the debugging printout at the end of "do_report_luns()" and then compare the number of printed drives in "check_ctlr_physical_drives()" - it stops at the first "gap" due to the call to "bmic_next_phy_disk()" failing. Ah well, I'll see if I can fix that...
Please find enclosed a patch for cciss_vol_status.c v1.12 that fixes a couple of bugs: Incorrect usage of "&&" (logical-and) instead of "&" (bitwise-and) Writing 1 byte outside of char array Use "%%" instead of "%" in printf() And some formatting fixes

Updated hpsa driver release date
I've attached a patch to version 3.4.14-115. It supports a kernel parameter, "hpsa.ignore=1,2" for example, to ignore the drives in bays 1 and 2.

I am interested in functionality similar to what is provided via kernel parameter by the "libata" driver that allows a disk to be ignored with "libata.force=X:00:disable". I currently have minor mods to the hpsa driver to accept a parameter and set the "expose_device" field when in HBA mode. Unlike RAID mode with logical devices the driver mostly stays out of the way in HBA mode so the effort seems minimal. In general the physical disks are discovered on each "scan" but "hpsa" opts out of motifying...
