Why are those different?

It looks like the last iteration calls __alloc_table() with an exact
number of sges

+	if (!prv) {
+		/* Only the last allocation could be less than the maximum */
+		table_size = left_pages ? SG_MAX_SINGLE_ALLOC : chunks;
+		ret = sg_alloc_table(sgt, table_size, gfp_mask);
+		if (unlikely(ret))
+			return ERR_PTR(ret);
+	}
