Since sparc does select ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN, it is necessary to use for_each_sg() in order to loop over each sg element. This also help find problems with drivers that do not properly initialize their sg tables when CONFIG_DEBUG_SG is enabled. Signed-off-by: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: "David S.
