Hi all,

After commit 4fd22c13ad44 ("scsi: smartpqi: add ofa support"), an arm
allyesconfig build with Clang fails with the following warning/error:

drivers/scsi/smartpqi/smartpqi_init.c:7473:2: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types ('typeof ((sg_count)) *' (aka 'unsigned int *') and 'uint64_t *' (aka 'unsigned long long *')) [-Wcompare-distinct-pointer-types]

According to include/asm-generic/div64.h, the first parameter of do_div
must be a 64-bit number, meaning the below diff would properly fix it.

However, I am not sure if there are any unintended consequences of this
change, hence reaching out before sending it in. If you have a more
preferred way of fixing it, please do so.

Thank you,
Nathan
