Hi Martin,
This code was added to detect holes, when we started testing with 4.9
kernel. when we disabled "use_blk_mq" and no merges, we are hitting
issues with holes. Anyhow In latest upstream, it got fixed with this
commit 5a8d75a1b8c99bdc926ba69b7b7dbe4fae81a5af
So we are removing the code

* Added support for translating the SGLs associated with incoming
commands either to IEE SGL or NVMe PRPs for NVMe devices.
* The hardware translation of IEEE SGL to NVMe PRPs has limitation
and if a command cannot be translated by hardware then it will go
to firmware and the firmware needs to
