Looks fine to, and I like cleaning up the arcane 0x03 as wel.

In non-coherent DMA mode, kernel uses cache flushing operations to maintain I/O coherency, so scsi's block queue should be aligned to ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN. Otherwise, If a DMA buffer and a kernel structure share a same cache line, and if the kernel structure has dirty data, cache_invalidate (no writeback) will cause data corruption.
