I had the same question Hans did, but I still fail to understand where in
the code things are going wrong the way you described at the moment ---
after dma_map_sg() there are nents entries in the scatterlist. But.
sg_dma_len() should be used instead of the length field to get the size of
the entry. If something is wrong, then it's this AFAICT.

Could you try whether changing this fixes it?

This patch has been merged long time ago.
