Hi Geetha,

I'm a little confused by the line above.

vtag is a 64 bit value.
It is masked, leaving the upper 16 bits intact,
and the lower 48 bits as zeros.
It is then left-shifted 48 bits.
By my reasoning the result is always 0.

e.g.
0x123456789abcdef1 & ~GENMASK_ULL(47, 0) => 0x1234000000000000
0x1234000000000000 << 48 => 0

Also, I suspect that FIELD_PREP could be used to good effect here.
(And, as an aside, elsewhere in this file/driver.)
