Could this be caused because srp_map_sg_entry falls back to the phys
mapping for unaligned large requests in line 1389 in Dougs tree:

	if ((!dev->use_fast_reg && dma_addr & ~dev->mr_page_mask) ||
	    dma_len > dev->mr_max_size) {
		ret = srp_finish_mapping(state, ch);
		if (ret)
			return ret;

		srp_map_desc(state, dma_addr, dma_len, target->rkey);
		srp_map_update_start(state, NULL, 0, 0);
		return 0;
	}

Bart, do you know what hardware this workaround is for?

Also the SRP driver still falls back to phys registrations if the
better MR methods fail, something that will stop working with
Jasons patch.  It's something that looks a little questionable
and which other ULDs don't do either, so it would be good time
to review this practice.

Additionally the SRP_DATA_DESC_INDIRECT case always uses the global
rkey, so whenever we hits this things are going to break.

Jason, I suspect it might be a good idea to rename the rkey field
to something like global_rkey, and make sure it's guarded by a proper
conditional shared by all users.
