Yes.  So the code needs to stop using sg_virt to work on highmem
setups and do the equivalent of scsi_kmap_atomic_sg.  Best way
forward is probably to move scsi_kmap_atomic_sg to lib/scatterlist.c
(and also convert it to kmap_local instead of kmap_atomic while you're
at it) and then use that in ubiblock
