Don,

> This set of changes consists of:
>
>  * Map entire BAR 0.
>    The driver was mapping up to and including the controller registers,
>    but not all of BAR 0.
>  * Add PCI IDs to support new controllers.
>  * Clean up some code by removing unnecessary NULL checks. 
>    This cleanup is a result of a Coverity report.
>  * Correct a rare memory leak whenever pqi_sas_port_add_rhpy() returns
>    an error. This was Suggested by: Yang Yingliang <yangyingliang@xxxxxxxxxx>
>  * Remove atomic operations on variable raid_bypass_cnt. Accuracy is not
>    required for driver operation. Change type from atomic_t to unsigned int.
>  * Correct a rare drive hot-plug removal issue where we get a NULL
>    io_request. We added a check for this condition.
>  * Turn on NCQ priority for AIO requests to disks comprising RAID devices.
>  * Correct byte aligned writew() operations on some ARM servers. Changed
>    the writew() to two writeb() operations.
>  * Change how the driver checks for a sanitize operation in progress.
>    We were using TEST UNIT READY. We removed the TEST UNIT READY code and
>    are now using the controller's firmware information in order to avoid
>    issues caused by drives failing to complete TEST UNIT READY.
>  * Some customers have been requesting that we add the NUMA node
>    to /sys/block/sd<scsi device>/device like the nvme driver does.
>  * Update the copyright information to match the current year.
>  * Bump the driver version to 2.1.22-040.

Applied to 6.5/scsi-staging, thanks!
