grasping why mpt2sas fails with BITS_PER_LONG conditional

I've had problems with the mpt2sas driver (drivers/scsi/mpt2sas/mpt2sas_base.c) when using it on my ppc44x. Basically, there is a check in the code for BITS_PER_LONG and certain code is executed if it is 64 vs 32 bit. I am guessing it is a problem with the driver but it only shows up on powerpc.
