[PATCH] aic94xx: Use request_firmware() to provide SAS address if the adapter lacks one

["Darrick J. Wong" <djwong@us.ibm.com>]

If the aic94xx chip doesn't have a SAS address in the chip's flash memory,
use the request_firmware() interface to get one from userspace.  This
way, there's no debate as to who or how an address gets generated--it's
totally up to the administrator to provide it if the card doesn't have one.
