    USB: fix scatterlist PIO case (IOMMU)
    
    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.
