Hello Himanshu,

Do you think it would be possible to keep the input and output offset as 
separate arguments ? Something that is very unfortunate about this patch 
is that it converts the qla82xx_pci_set_crbwindow_2M() function again 
into a function that expects an unsigned long in *off and writes an I/O 
memory address into *off. It is impossible to avoid that source code 
does not trigger any sparse warning if such functions occur.

Thanks,

Bart.
