Why are those different?

It looks like the last iteration calls __alloc_table() with an exact
number of sges

+       if (!prv) {
+               /* Only the last allocation could be less than the maximum */
+               table_size = left_pages ? SG_MAX_SINGLE_ALLOC : chunks;
+               ret = sg_alloc_table(sgt, table_size, gfp_mask);
+               if (unlikely(ret))
+                       return ERR_PTR(ret);
+       }
