Use (for_each_sgtable_sg) rather than (for_each_sg) to traverse
sg_table to free sg_table.
Use (for_each_sg) maybe will casuse some pages can't be freed
when send wrong nents number.

It's still worth spelling out that this is fixing a bug where the current code should have been using table->orig_nents - it's just that switching to the sgtable helper is the best way to make the fix, since it almost entirely removes the possibility of making that (previously rather common) mistake.

If it helps, for the change itself:
