So for the RAMDISK_DR (direct) SGL memory mapping case we do not support
WRITEs for HW fabric modules using task_sg_changing=1.

Please go ahead and use RAMDISK_MCP instead, and I will look at adding a
special case in target_core_fabric_configfs.c code to disallow
RAMDISK_DR symlink creation of configfs ports for target fabric modules
using task_sg_chaining=1.

Thanks!
