From: David Brownell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Update the scatterlist logic so that PIO options are also disabled
when an IOMMU may have coalesced pages during dma_map_sg() ... it's
not just HIGHMEM that can make trouble supporting both PIO and DMA
based host controller drivers.
There also seems to be a cross-arch issue here, with 64bit powerpc
not using an IOMMU define ... and its IOMMU_VMERGE config can always
be overridden on the kernel command line. So this is better, but
still imperfect.
