I asked about that in other thread 
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-wireless/2cc5674a-a3a0-d8fe-65f5-4357da9b85d3@xxxxxxx/

the answer was it is weird but valid. However I think do dma_map_page()
on buffer not fit in the single page is asking for troubles. I just posted
patch that should fix this for mt76usb.

Looks for me that this is done via for_each_sg(sg, sg, io->entries, i) loop.
