As blk_queue_virt_boundary() API in slave_configure ensures that no IOs
will come with holes/gaps. Hence, code logic to detect the holes/gaps in
IO buffer is not required.

- * Below code detects gaps/holes in IO data buffers.
- * What does holes/gaps mean?
- * Any SGE except first one in a SGL starts at non NVME page size
- * aligned address OR Any SGE except last one in a SGL ends at
- * non NVME page size boundary.
- *
- * Driver has already informed block layer by setting boundary rules for
- * bio merging done at NVME page size boundary calling kernel API
- * blk_queue_virt_boundary inside slave_config.
- * Still there is possibility of IO coming with holes to driver because of
- * IO merging done by IO scheduler.
- *
- * With SCSI BLK MQ enabled, there will be no IO with holes as there is no
- * IO scheduling so no IO merging.
- *
- * With SCSI BLK MQ disabled, IO scheduler may attempt to merge IOs and
- * then sending IOs with holes.
- *
- * Though driver can request block layer to disable IO merging by calling-
- * blk_queue_flag_set(QUEUE_FLAG_NOMERGES, sdev->request_queue) but
- * user may tune sysfs parameter- nomerges again to 0 or 1.
- *
- * If in future IO scheduling is enabled with SCSI BLK MQ,
- * this algorithm to detect holes will be required in driver
- * for SCSI BLK MQ enabled case as well.
