PATCH 1/1 scsi: smartpqi: properly set both the DMA mask and the coherent DMA mask in pqi_pci_init()

When SME is enabled, the smartpqi driver won't work on the HP DL385 G10 machine, which causes the failure of kernel boot because it fails to allocate pqi error buffer. Please refer to the kernel log:

For correct operation, lets call the dma_set_mask_and_coherent() to properly set the mask for both streaming and coherent, in order to inform the kernel about the devices DMA addressing capabilities.

For correct operation, lets call the dma_set_mask_and_coherent() to properly set the mask for both streaming and coherent, in order to inform the kernel about the devices DMA addressing capabilities.

You should probably expand on this a bit... Basically, the fact that the coherent DMA mask value wasn't set caused the driver to fall back to SWIOTLB when SME is active. I'm not sure if the failure was from running out of SWIOTLB or exceeding the maximum allocation size for SWIOTLB.

I believe the fix is proper, but I'll let the driver owner comment on that.

Thanks,
Tom

I'm not sure if the failure was from running out of SWIOTLB or exceeding the maximum allocation size for SWIOTLB

If so, it should print some messages like "swiotlb buffer is full", but i did not get such a log.

I believe the fix is proper, but I'll let the driver owner comment on that.

Thanks,
Tom

Please add the extra description suggested by Thomas.

OK, i will add Tom's description to patch log and post again.

Thank you, Don.
