Ahh now I see the -2 (SG_DXFER_TO_DEV) is the crucial point here. It is 0 in
your case.
This would "fix" it but I'm not generally sure it is _the_ solution:
diff --git a/drivers/scsi/sg.c b/drivers/scsi/sg.c

Doug, what are the rules for SG_DXFER_TO_{FROM_}DEV? Apparently we can't
be sure len > 0, can we rely on dxferp being present?
Thanks,
