This patch is a fix patch and should have been tagged as such.
However, the proper tagging is complicated by the fact that the
SG_MAX_SEGMENTS was originally named SCSI_MAX_SG_CHAIN_SEGMENTS. The
fix applies all the way back to the first patch to enable SG segments
in the srp driver, but you will need a different patch for the kernels
prior to the rename. For this patch, I've added the following tags and
applied the patch:
Fixes: 65e8617fba17 (scsi: rename SCSI_MAX_{SG, SG_CHAIN}_SEGMENTS)
Fixes: c07d424d6118 (IB/srp: add support for indirect tables that don't
fit in SRP_CMD)
Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx # 4.7+
Someone should write a patch for the earlier kernels and submit it
directly to stable@ with the patch flagged for application on kernels
from 2.6.39 to 4.6. The upstream hash for the fix to mainline is:
