This patchset introduces sg_pcopy_from_buffer() and sg_pcopy_to_buffer(), which copy data between a linear buffer and an SG list. The only difference between sg_pcopy_{from,to}_buffer() and sg_copy_{from,to}_buffer() is an additional argument that specifies the number of bytes to skip the SG list before copying. The main reason for introducing these functions is to fix a problem in scsi_debug module. And there is a local function in crypto/talitos module, which can be replaced by sg_pcopy_to_buffer(). This patch: sg_miter_get_next_page() is used to proceed page iterator to the next page if necessary, and will be used to implement the variants of sg_copy_{from,to}_buffer() later.
