Lianbo Jiang 1d94f06e7f scsi: smartpqi: properly set both the DMA mask and the coherent DMA mask
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:

[  139.589779] dracut-initqueue[949]: Warning: dracut-initqueue timeout - starting timeout scripts

Basically, the fact that the coherent DMA mask value wasn't set caused the
driver to fall back to SWIOTLB when SME is active.

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.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
