mainlining shenanigans
3e2c11b3fb
When mapping the pages from a scatter/gather list from the SCSI layer we only need to follow these rules: - Max SGEs for each I/O request is 256 - No size limit on each SGE - No need to split OS provided SGEs to 4K before sending to firmware. - Slow SGE is applicable only when: - There are > 8 SGEs and any middle SGE is less than a page size (4K) Make necessary changes so that driver follows these rules. Applicable only for Write requests (not for Read requests). No need to check SGE address alignment requirements (first, middle or last) before declaring slow SGE.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
