[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.14 7/7] net/rds: dma_map_sg is entitled to merge entries

[ Upstream commit fb4b1373dcab086d0619c29310f0466a0b2ceb8a ]

Function "dma_map_sg" is entitled to merge adjacent entries
and return a value smaller than what was passed as "nents".

Subsequently "ib_map_mr_sg" needs to work with this value ("sg_dma_len")
rather than the original "nents" parameter ("sg_len").

This old RDS bug was exposed and reliably causes kernel panics
(using RDMA operations "rds-stress -D") on x86_64 starting with:
commit c588072bba6b ("iommu/vt-d: Convert intel iommu driver to the iommu ops")

Simply put: Linux 5.11 and later.
