Sorry but these kinds of fixes are not "readability fixes", in fact they make things more obtuse.
(*MdlPages << PAGE_SHIFT)) could be interpreted as
*(MdlPages << PAGE_SHIFT).
while
((*MdlPages) << PAGE_SHIFT)
Makes it clear what is happening.
In general, all operations affecting the contents of a *dereference should be in parens.
