Please stop this crap.  There is absolute no reason at all ofr this
mess.

Please just write a normal driver with a hand-generated header.  That
requires less work than all the arguing here and means people can
immediately jump in and actually understand the driver, unlike the
current train wreck.  And looking at mpt2sas/mpt3sas is is pretty clear
that the comon header scheme does not work at all.
