Subject: sg regression in 2.6.16-rc5

We have encountered some kind of sg regression with kernel 2.6.16-rc5  
relative to 2.6.15. We have a small program that demonstrates the  
failure. On 2.6.15 it produces the output:

Alloced dataptr 0 -> 0xb7d07008
IOS: 0
ios 100

indicating that it did 100 operations successfully. On 2.6.16-rc5, it  
produces the output:

Alloced dataptr 0 -> 0xa7d10008
SG_IO ioctl error 12 Cannot allocate memory
ios 0

indicating that it did 0 operations successfully. This program is  
attempting to do 1MB reads on a SCSI device. We get the failure both  
on an aic79xx parallel SCSI and on aic94xx SAS. With both types of  
devices, it works fine on the 2.6.15 kernel. We have also seen this  
problem on the 2.6.16-rc4 kernel. In all cases we were running on an  
Intel Xeon-based system.

Below is the source for the program that was used to demonstrate this  
problem:

#include <ctype.h>

     printf("sense:  cdb0 : %02hhX",cdb0);
     dwptr = (unsigned int *) &sense_buffer;
     for (i = 0; i < len ; i++) {

         if (!(i % 16)) {
             printf("\n%02hhX", sense_buffer[i]);
             continue;
         }
         if (!(i % 4))
             printf(" ");
         printf("%02hhX", sense_buffer[i]);
     }
     printf(" KEY: %02hhX ", sense_buffer[2] & 0x0f);
     printf("ASC: %02hhX ", sense_buffer[12]);
     printf("ASCQ: %02hhX\n", sense_buffer[13]);
}
