Douglas Gilbert 6460e75a10 [SCSI] sg: fixes for large page_size 
This sg driver patch addresses the problem with larger
page sizes reported by Brian King in this post:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=115867718623631&w=2
Some other related matters are also addressed. Some of these
prevent oopses when the SG_SCATTER_SZ or scatter_elem_sz are
set to inappropriate values.

The scatter_elem_sz has been tested up to 4 MB which should
make the largest data transfer with one SCSI command, 32 MB
less one block, achievable with a relatively small number
of elements in the scatter gather list.

ChangeLog:
    - add scatter_elem_sz boot time parameter and sysfs module
      parameter that is initialized to SG_SCATTER_SZ
    - the driver will then adjust scatter_elem_sz to be the
      max(given(scatter_elem_sz), PAGE_SIZE)
      It will also round it up, if necessary, to be a power
      of two
    - clean up sg.h header, correct bad urls and some statements
      that are no longer valid
    - make the def_reserved_size sysfs module attribute writable
