If your stack existed in full open source form upstream we might be able to add it the supported raid formats, which would make life even easier for your customers. > Hence, this is to ask Linux how to solve this conflict with AHCI driver? > and why Linux wants to add RR642L ID (0x06421103) into AHCI driver?

Apart from having your customers reconfigure their kernel or carefully set stuff up at boot time, no.
