Public bug reported:

Previous -nvidia kernels had been carrying the following patch:

>> fde24a3efec2 NVIDIA: SAUCE: NVMe/MVMEeOF: Patch NVMe/NVMeOF driver to
support GDS on Linux 6.8 Kernel


This patchset that is present in 6.17 [1] reworks the NVMe host driver to use 
the blk_rq_dma_map helper instead of tracking scatterlists internally, where 
possible. The GDS hook implementations from "NVIDIA: SAUCE: NVMe/MVMEeOF: Patch 
NVMe/NVMeOF driver to support GDS on Linux 6.8 Kernel" expect the old 
implementation and thus pass scatterlist mappings through to nvidia_fs.

Rework the old GDS patch so that it works on v6.17
