v2 - use per CPU static buffers instead of dynamically allocating memory.
v3 - Use get_cpu_var/put_cpu_var which implicitly control preeemption. Drop
the wrapper function that no longer serves any purpose.
v4 - According to discussion between Dan Williams and Dave Jiang, MAX_SCF really
only needs to be 256. That is certainly a simpler patch then previous efforts.
Quoting from an email regarding v3:
Dan said, "Looks good to me... but now that I think about it, why is MAX_SCF set
to 1024 in the first place? Certainly it can't be bigger than the
maximum number of sources in a single operation which is 8 to 16.
Even md raid can only support up to 256 devices in an array. So I
think that contstant is bogus.
If we set it to 16 we may not even need the percpu change.
Dave?"
Dave responded, "You are right. It was an arbitrary number I threw in there to address
sparse warning. It can be reduced. 256 seems reasonable. "
