From: Brian King <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

The patch below fixes a bug in the PPC64 iommu vmerge code which results in
the potential for iommu_unmap_sg to go off unmapping more than it should. 
This was found on a test system which resulted in PCI bus errors due to PCI
memory being unmapped while DMAs were still in progress.
