(OP)
I do not have ACI 530-08 in hand but wanted to know if L/600 is the only criteria and 0.3" has been removed.

RE: ACI 530-08 Deflection critieria

Yes and Yes.

(OP)
One of the guy told me that it is only for unreinforced masonry. Does it apply to reinforced masonry also?

RE: ACI 530-08 Deflection critieria

Per ACI 530-08, the l/600 requirement is for masonry designed per Section 2.2 (unreinforced ASD), 3.2 (unreinforced SD), Ch 5 (empirical), or A.2 (unreinforced AAC).
