In cases where it is hard to know to minimum numbers of ents
table will need to hold at sg_alloc_time, and we end up with
a table with unused sg entries at its end, this function will
trim (free) the unused sg entry blocks and adjust the
table->orig_nents down.
An alternative I had in mind, was to allocate the new chunks
iteratively, i.e. as we run out of room in i915_sg_add_page.
Thought about it but did not like having to handle another source of
failures. Hm, don't know. Will think about it.
