I can confirm that 10.3 supports the P440 controller. From a DL360 Gen9
server running 10.3 here:

ciss0: <HP Smart Array P440ar> port 0x2000-0x20ff mem
0x92c00000-0x92cfffff,0x92d00000-0x92d003ff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci3
ciss0: PERFORMANT Transport
...
da0 at ciss0 bus 0 scbus0 target 0 lun 0
da0: <HP RAID 1(1+0) OK> Fixed Direct Access SPC-3 SCSI device
da0: Serial Number PDNLH0BRH8S3RF
da0: 135.168MB/s transfers
da0: Command Queueing enabled
da0: 139979MB (286677120 512 byte sectors)

All
Also don't forget to is install cciss_vol_status to monitor the array .
