  3. linux-4.14.39: Use aacraid Linux kernel driver 

    In contrast to Linux 4.9, with Linux 4.14.x and the out-of-tree aacraid
driver the system crashes, when unplugging a JBOD.

This doesn’t happen with the in-tree-driver, so switch to that one. This
is also possible, since our tools where adapted to work around a missing
symbolic link under `/sys`.
