Indeed. That is why there is code in the SRP initiator that uses 
multiple FRWR registrations when a discontiguous SG-list is passed to 
that driver by the SCSI mid-layer. Some time ago I had posted a test 
program that makes the SCSI mid-layer submit a discontiguous I/O request 
to a SCSI LLD (see also 
https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-rdma-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org/msg21224.html).
