Hi Herbert,
Changes v2: use sg_page(sg) only once
---8<---
For asynchronous operation, SGs are allocated without a page mapped to
them. If the SGL is freed, the code must only call put_page for an SG if
there was a page assigned to it in the first place.
This fixes a kernel crash when using io_submit with more than one iocb.
