Noted; I'll fix this in the next version.

I'm vaguely aware of it. But as I understand it, __counted_by() nominates
another member in the struct which keeps the count? In this case, there is no
such member, it's size is implicit based on the value of PAGE_SIZE. So I'm not
sure if it's practical to use it here?

DEFINE_GLOBAL_PAGE_SIZE_VAR_CONST(), when doing a boot-time page size build,
defers the initialization of the global variable to kernel init time, when
PAGE_SIZE is known. Because SIL24_MAX_SGE is defined in terms of PAGE_SIZE, this
deferral is required.
