Wouldn't this be better off as:

    driver_geo.cylinders = (int)(hba[ctlr]->drv[dsk].nr_blocks / (0xff*0x3f));

Something like the following should work for most cases (i.e. as long as
an individual device isn't larger than 2TB):

	round = do_div(sz, conf->smallest_size);

Don't we need something similar here also?
