Rather than freeing and re-allocating the pages when DMA mapping
in large chunks fails, we can just rebuild the sg table with no
coalescing.

Also change back the page counter to unsigned int because that
is what the sg API supports.

Are you still against this? As a reminder it saves a put_page/allocate page-from-shmemfs cycle on dma mapping failures.
