Subject: [PATCH 3.16 36/61] scsi: sg: disable SET_FORCE_LOW_DMA

3.16.85-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Hannes Reinecke <hare@...e.de>

commit 745dfa0d8ec26b24f3304459ff6e9eacc5c8351b upstream.

The ioctl SET_FORCE_LOW_DMA has never worked since the initial git
check-in, and the respective setting is nowadays handled correctly. So
disable it entirely.
