Hi Abdul,

We have posted a new set of patches to fix this issue. This patch set
won't change the DMA Mask on the fly and also won't hardcode the DMA
mask to 32 bit.

[PATCH 0/5] mpt3sas: Fix changing coherent mask after allocation.

This patchset will have below patches, Please review and try with this
patch set.

Suganath Prabu S (5):
  mpt3sas: Don't change the dma coherent mask after      allocations
  mpt3sas: Rename function name is_MSB_are_same
  mpt3sas: Code Refactoring.
  mpt3sas: Handle RDPQ DMA allocation in same 4g region
  mpt3sas: Update version to 33.101.00.00

Regards,
Sreekanth
