Possible causes of this kind of problem include :
- lack of support by the kernel (too old for the new hardware)
- missing driver in the initramfs.

Could you post the detailed identification of the adapter printed by 
"lspci -nn" ? According to the identification string the VID:DID should 
be 1000:0064 or 1000:0065. Both identifiers have been recognized by the 
mpt2sas/mpt3sas module at least since Jessie.

When at the initramfs prompt, could you check whether the mpt3sas module 
is present in
lib/modules/<version>/kernel/drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas.ko and loaded 
(as shown by lsmod or in /proc/modules) ? If it is missing, maybe 
"MODULES=dep" was set in /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf (including 
only modules for the current hardware at the time of initramfs build) 
instead of "MODULES=most" (including modules for most storage hardware).
