This had me confused, the above SHA is incorrect. It's:
e0e0747de0ea ("scsi: mpt3sas: Fix return value check of dma_get_required_mask()")

There are three recent commit in this area. e0e0747de0ea was
accidentally reverted by Linus during a merge and reinstated as
1a2dcbdde82e. So unless I'm missing something, the appropriate thing
would be to backport these three commits:
9df650963bf6 ("scsi: mpt3sas: Don't change DMA mask while reallocating pools")
1a2dcbdde82e ("scsi: mpt3sas: re-do lost mpt3sas DMA mask fix")
06e472acf964 ("scsi: mpt3sas: Remove usage of dma_get_required_mask() API")
