Hello:
Could anyone tell me in struct mmc_queue, what is the difference between
'struct scatterlist *bounce_sg' and 'struct scatterlist *sg' is?
I see 'bounce_sg' get used to copy data from/to the buffer upon a host
read/write operation so I assume 'bounce_sg' points to the most recent
data from a host controller read/write operation.
Thanks for the help.

If someone actually knows this, I will send up a patch documenting this
in the code. I think some of the mmc code could use a little
documentation??
