Thanks for the comments. Here is a quick answer to some questions.

OK. This line could be deleted.

We could add prefixes for this matter.

No. It was only tested on i386 and x86-64 machines.

This is called always with hba->host->host_lock locked.

I was always thinking about this problem, because here the req count is not
power of 2.
If we use wrap up, is the extra code handling 0xffffffff needed?

It is just a 32-bit mask. I guess DMA_32BIT_MASK is OK?

It's just for write order, but it seems unnecessary on i386.

These commands are called just one or two times anyway, maybe need not
static here?

I'll check and fix them.

It's same for the "write order" thing. It can be deleted if unnecessary.

The rmb() here intends to guarantee every readl() to be really effective 
(directly from hardware), although there is already "volatile".

The megaraid_mbox driver uses this...

I used to observe sporadic handshake failure, so I added this(rmb()).
