[PATCH v2 06/21] drm: i915: fix sg_table nents vs. orig_nents misuse for dmabuf objects

The Documentation/DMA-API-HOWTO.txt states that dma_map_sg returns the
numer of the created entries in the DMA address space. However the
subsequent calls to dma_sync_sg_for_{device,cpu} and dma_unmap_sg must be
called with the original number of entries passed to dma_map_sg. The
sg_table->nents in turn holds the result of the dma_map_sg call as stated
in include/linux/scatterlist.h.

This driver creatively uses sg_table->orig_nents to store the size of the
allocate scatterlist and ignores the number of the entries returned by
dma_map_sg function. The sg_table->orig_nents is (mis)used to properly
free the (over)allocated scatterlist.

This patch only fixes the sg_table->nents entries in the sg_table objects
exported by the dmabuf related functions, so the other drivers, which
might share buffers with i915 could rely on the nents and orig_nents
values.
