Andrew,

I actually have zero clue why that code was looking like that, it goes
back to the original driver from before I started maintaining
it. Someone in a cube next to you must have written it.

The 64bit IOCB path has been working great for quite a while, both on
Altix but also as far back as the BigSur boat anchors ;-)

I'll include your change with James' changes into the next release
(modulo the 64 bit addressing bit one as per your explanation).

Cheers,
Jes
