I assumed align_nrpages() would allocate 2 pages when
the offset is over PAGE_SIZE, but it seems economical and only
allocates 1 page to cover just the sg->length bytes.

the pteval also seems correct now, since you changed to 
sg_phys() that already accounts for sg->offset, so you 
subtract pgoff.

-           pteval = page_to_phys(sg_page(sg)) | prot;
+           pteval = (sg_phys(sg) - pgoff) | prot;
