[PATCH] ARM: Add Kconfig entry for SG chain support

[Fernando Guzman Lugo]

Add a entry to make possible SG chaining under ARM
architecture.

Tidspbridge driver needs SG chaining, however SG chain has not
been tested under all platforms. Adding this option OMAP
platform can enable it and if other platforms have issues they
would not enable it.

This patch is base on this discussion:
