Instead of requiring a flag we could simply check for the sglist_count
to be non-zero instead of requiring multiple pieces of information to
be in sync.

I'd also be tempted to remove the wrappers and just expose what is
__target_submit_cmd now to the drivers, but that can be done
independently as a cleanup.
