[Devel] Maintenance of hpsa and qla2xxx

Hi there,

Thanks for your great work on Alma.

I saw that Alma patched away the deprecation resp. unmaintained warnings for hpsa and qla2xxx (and others) for the forthcoming 8.10 and 9.4 as a result of the recent Hackathon in Rust.

I wonder what it means in terms of ongoing maintenance for those drivers. Are they still maintained upstreams and will Alma pick up upstream changes even if RHEL drops them?

Otherwise simply patching away the warnings might be misleading.

Thanks and regards,

Rainer
