This series [1] reducing the kmalloc() minimum alignment on arm64 to 8 (from 128). In libsas, this will cause SMP requests to be 8-byte-aligned through kmalloc() allocation. However, for the hisi_sas hardware, all commands address must be 16-byte-aligned. Otherwise, the commands fail to be executed. ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN represents the minimum (static) alignment for safe DMA operations, so use ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN as the alignment for SMP request.
