Yes, intuitively one would assume that the sg code was for devices with
native scatter-gather capability that can deal with an actual set of
buffer descriptors, rather than just a single pointer (which is the
original purpose of scatterlists, after all). I've always been slightly
puzzled why the two seem to be quite so similar.

Oh, the fun we've had over that implementation detail! :P
