Each 'struct scatterlist *sg' refers to a range of contiguous pfns
starting at page_to_pfn(sg_page()) and going for approx sg->length/PAGE_SIZE
pfns long.

sg_page() returns the first page, but nothing says that sg_page()+1
has the same pgmap.

The code in this patch does check the first page of each sg in a
larger sgl.

All places that generate compound sg's by aggregating multiple pages
need to include this check along side the check for physical
contiguity. There are not that many places but
sg_alloc_append_table_from_pages() is one of them:
