Description: Value of "simple" indicates that the controller has been placed
in "simple mode". Value of "performant" indicates that the

CCISS simple mode support
-------------------------
The "cciss_simple_mode=1" boot parameter may be used to prevent the driver
from putting the controller into "performant" mode. The difference is that
with simple mode, each command completion requires an interrupt, while with
"performant mode" (the default, and ordinarily better performing) it is
possible to have multiple command completions indicated by a single
interrupt.
