Subject: [PATCH] lib: make sg_pool explicitly non-modular

The recently added Kconfig controlling compilation of this code is:

lib/Kconfig:config SG_POOL
lib/Kconfig:    def_bool n

...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.

Lets remove the modular code that is essentially orphaned, so that
when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only.

Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the non-modular
case, the init ordering remains unchanged with this commit.  However
one might want to consider moving it to subsys_initcall if it is to
be ready ahead of SCSI drivers wanting this and using device_initcall.
