SCSI: support for allocating large scatterlists
This is what enables large commands. If we need to allocate an sgtable that doesn't fit in a single page, allocate several SCSI_MAX_SG_SEGMENTS sized tables and chain them together. SCSI defaults to large chained sg tables, if the arch supports it. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>
