Hmm it doesn't quite work like that.  It returns zero on error,
otherwise it returns the number (n) of mapped entries which may be
less than what you gave it due to merging.  You're then supposed
to use only the first n entries which should contain everything.
Please take a look at Documentation/DMA-API-HOWTO.txt, it has
everything you need to know about the dma_map_sg interface.

Cheers,
