Yeah, this problem should occur in the upstream open-iscsi iscsi code.
open-iscsi works very similar to linux-scsi where it just sends pages
around with sock->ops-sendpage, and it looks like sg uses
__get_free_pages in RHEL's kernel and upstream it uses alloc_pages so
unless there was a change in those functions or the network layer then
we should have a similar problem.
