Patch for ciss.4

The SmartArray P840 is not listed in this manpage, despite the ciss(4) driver support this array card. P840 is listed in the source code: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/blame/master/sys/dev/ciss/ciss.c#L363

I've tried to use the ciss drivert in my proliant g9. And it works without much issue, so I created a patch to add this to the manpage
