Hi,
I haven't made special tests to compare 2.6.22-cfs19 and 2.6.22-ck1,
but I see performance superiority of 2.6.22-ck1 using my own eyes.

seconds) when I'm trying to open any url, but with 2.6.22-c

Hi,
A repost of this patchset, which adds support forchaining of sg tables.
This enables much larger IO commands, since we don't have to allocate
large consecutive pieces of memory to represent the sgtable of a
huge command. Right now Linux is limited to somewhere between 128 and 256
segments, dep

The dma mapping helpers need to be converted to using
sg helpers as well, so they will work with a chained
sglist setup.

The core of the patch - allow the last sg element in a scatterlist
table to point to the start of a new table. We overload the LSB of
the page pointer to indicate whether this is a valid sg entry, or
merely a link to the next list.

This is a trivial patch, I will merge to my blackfin-git tree.
