Hi,

how are failures of dma_map_sg supposed to be reported to higher layers?

	Regards

return DID_REQUEUE in the host byte of the command result is probably
closest to the behaviour you want: it will requeue until another command
returns for the host which (presumably) frees up some IOMMU resources.
