This is this warning (not the one I added):

         /*
          * Something must have been wrong if the figured number of
          * segment is bigger than number of req's physical segments
          */
         WARN_ON(nsegs > rq->nr_phys_segments);

We need backtrace to see who called blk_rq_map_sg.  Think driver didn't 
provide enough segments.  Maybe
my "+8" addition should be moved.  I don't think this warning was actual 
failure point.

James mentioned "Apparently in parisc we don't set the max segment size, 
so we inherit 64k even in SCSI drivers."
Can this be changed?
