Hi Jens,

I got 2.5 booting on ppc64 today and noticed that the behaviour of
sglists has changed. Before we would get an array of sg->address,
sg->length pairs, we now get sg->page, sg->offset, sg->length triplets
(from blk_rq_map_sg).

I dont care too much either way, but if this change is here to stay I'll
let the non intel maintainers know so they can fix up their pci dma
code.
