Wow, that is some great debugging. Thanks for all the time & effort
you and others have invested. Sorry for breaking your system.
You're almost right about the "prerequisites", but it's in the other
direction; 0b62af28f249 is a prerequisite for the later two cleanups,
so reverting all three is necessary to test 0b62af28f249.
It seems to me that you've isolated the problem to constructing overly
long sg lists. I didn't realise that was going to be a problem, so
that's my fault.
Could I ask you to try this patch? I'll follow up with another patch
later because I think I made another assumption that may not be valid.
