It comes in this way:

drivers/scsi/sg.c:
sg_write(struct file *filp, const char __user *buf, size_t count, loff_t * ppos)
580 struct sg_header old_hdr;
581 sg_io_hdr_t *hp;
582 unsigned char cmnd[SG_MAX_CDB_SIZE];
[...]
598 if (__copy_from_user(&old_hdr, buf, SZ_SG_HEADER))
599 return -EFAULT;
[...]
612 buf += SZ_SG_HEADER;
613 __get_user(opcode, buf);
[...]
614 if (sfp->next_cmd_len > 0) {
615 cmd_size = sfp->next_cmd_len;
616 sfp->next_cmd_len = 0; /* reset so only this write() effected */
617 } else {
618 cmd_size = COMMAND_SIZE(opcode); /* based on SCSI command group */
619 if ((opcode >= 0xc0) && old_hdr.twelve_byte)
620 cmd_size = 12;
621 }
[...]
625 input_size = count - cmd_size;
626 mxsize = (input_size > old_hdr.reply_len) ? input_size : old_hdr.reply_len;
627 mxsize -= SZ_SG_HEADER;
633 hp = &srp->header;
[...]
646 hp->dxferp = (char __user *)buf + cmd_size;
[...]
654 if (__copy_from_user(cmnd, buf, cmd_size))
655 return -EFAULT;
[...]
675 k = sg_common_write(sfp, srp, cmnd, sfp->timeout, blocking);
[...]
752 static int
753 sg_common_write(Sg_fd * sfp, Sg_request * srp,
754 unsigned char *cmnd, int timeout, int blocking)
755 {
[...]
772 k = sg_start_req(srp, cmnd);
[...]
1653 static int
1654 sg_start_req(Sg_request *srp, unsigned char *cmd)
1655 {
[...]
1757 res = blk_rq_map_user(q, rq, md, hp->dxferp,
1758 hp->dxfer_len, GFP_ATOMIC);
[...]

block/blk-map.c:
148 int blk_rq_map_user(struct request_queue *q, struct request *rq,
149 struct rq_map_data *map_data, void __user *ubuf,
150 unsigned long len, gfp_t gfp_mask)
151 {
[...]
154 int ret = import_single_range(rq_data_dir(rq), ubuf, len, &iov, &i);

lib/iov_iter.c:
1209 int import_single_range(int rw, void __user *buf, size_t len,
1210 struct iovec *iov, struct iov_iter *i)
1211 {
1217 iov->iov_base = buf;

block/blk-map.c:
148 int blk_rq_map_user(struct request_queue *q, struct request *rq,
149 struct rq_map_data *map_data, void __user *ubuf,
150 unsigned long len, gfp_t gfp_mask)
151 {
[...]
159 return blk_rq_map_user_iov(q, rq, map_data, &i, gfp_mask);

and so on....

So the memory for hp->dxferp comes from:
633 hp = &srp->header;
a.k.a.
sg_add_sfp()'s:
2151 sfp = kzalloc(sizeof(*sfp), GFP_ATOMIC | __GFP_NOWARN);
And then taken out of the pool by sg_add_request() methinks. So yes it is a
kernel pointer (and the address proves it as well).

>From my debug instrumentation I see that the dxferp ends up in the
iovec_iter's kvec->iov_base and the faulting address is always dxferp + n *
4k with n in [1, 16] (and we're copying 16 4k pages from the iovec into the
bio).
