SubjectRe: [PATCH 2/2] USB: storage: use sg_miter_* APIs to access scsi buffer

Hmmm. You could simply call sg_copy_buffer, if you didn't mind the
quadratic penalty for the sg_miter_skip operations.

This is definitely wrong. Scatterlist entries are not always stored in
a linear array. To do this properly, you would have to make the caller
keep track of the current value of nents.

Or better yet, have the caller store and pass the sg_mapping_iter
structure rather than sgptr and offset.

I find this style somewhat annoying. Maybe the compiler is smart
enough to optimize it, maybe not. In any case, I would prefer to see

if (dir == FROM_XFER_BUF)
sgdir = SG_MITER_FROM_SG;
else
sgdir = SG_MITER_TO_SG;
sg_miter_start(&miter, nents, sgdir);

Or even:

sg_miter_start(&miter, nents, (dir == FROM_XFER_BUF ?
SG_MITER_FROM_SG : SG_MITER_TO_SG));

Why remove this comment?
