This patch ostensibly fixes the issue - at least I cannot immediately
reproduce it. You can count me in as "Tested-by: Artem S. Tashkinov"
Let's all contemplate the fact that blk_segment_map_sg() _overrunning
the end of
the provided sglist_ was this much of a clusterfuck to debug.
From the look of it this fix has nothing to do with PAE, so then why
only PAE users like me were affected by the original
(b54ffb73cadcdcff9cc1ae0e11f502407e3e2e4c) patch?
