Hi Sumit,
the fn params are a bit confusing req_desc_lo is of type dma_addr_t
and req_desc_hi is u32, is it possible to unite it in the future?

On a similar place mpt2sas(_base_writeq) uses only "#ifndef writeq"
if it's incorrect fix it there too or remove the CONFIG_64 here

This seems to be critical path (you are removing an spinlock to avoid overhead),
so why do you have three consecutive assignments to the same variable?
(~(u64 req_data = r_hi << 32 | r_lo))

Cheers,
Tomas
