Hi Andrew,
There was no review for a couple of weeks I'm afraid on this patch. Could I know
what I can do to push it up ?
And another question : do you want another patch to add a MAINTAINERS entry for
this sg_split ?
Cheers.

[1] The posted patch
> Sometimes a scatter-gather has to be split into several chunks, or sub
> scatter lists. This happens for example if a scatter list will be
> handled by multiple DMA channels, each one filling a part of it.
>
> A concrete example comes with the media V4L2 API, where the scatter list
> is allocated from userspace to hold an image, regardless of the
> knowledge of how many DMAs will fill it :
> - in a simple RGB565 case, one DMA will pump data from the camera ISP
> to memory
> - in the trickier YUV422 case, 3 DMAs will pump data from the camera
> ISP pipes, one for pipe Y, one for pipe U and one for pipe V
>
> For these cases, it is necessary to split the original scatter list into
> multiple scatter lists, which is the purpose of this patch.
>
> The guarantees that are required for this patch are :
> - the intersection of spans of any couple of resulting scatter lists is
> empty.
> - the union of spans of all resulting scatter lists is a subrange of
> the span of the original scatter list.
> - streaming DMA API operations (mapping, unmapping) should not happen
> both on both the resulting and the original scatter list. It's either
> the first or the later ones.
> - the caller is reponsible to call kfree() on the resulting
> scatterlists.
