Subject: [PATCH 3.16 65/99] scsi: megaraid_sas: Use 63-bit DMA addressing

3.16.65-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Shivasharan S <shivasharan.srikanteshwara@...adcom.com>

commit 894169db12463cea08d0e2a9e35f42b291340e5a upstream.

Although MegaRAID controllers support 64-bit DMA addressing, as per
hardware design, DMA address with all 64-bits set
(0xFFFFFFFF-FFFFFFFF) results in a firmware fault.

Driver will set 63-bit DMA mask to ensure the above address will not be
used.

[bwh: Backported to 3.16: Only one instance of a 64-bit mask needs changing]
