This bit already defined as 'NVME_RW_PRINFO_PRACT'.

You can remove this variable.

You're checking the bit with the CPU arch's native endianness, so you
shouldn't be byte swapping here for BE archs.

No need for the "test_bit()" here, you can just do:

	if (io.control & NVME_RW_PRINFO_PRACT && ms == 8))
