The WARNING messages show that there are out-of-tree modules (i.e. not
part of the kernel package) loaded.  What are those?

Hi!

This is only one driver, mpt2sas downloaded from LSI site version 22.00 instead 13.0 from Debian package. Because from beggining we think that is was a problems in RAID controller. But this hypothesis turned out as erroneous. On other machines we use mpt2sas in-kernel driver only. No 3rd party drivers.
