Upper-layer drivers allocate their SBALs by calling qdio_alloc_buffers() for each individual queue. But when later passing the SBAL addresses to qdio_establish(), they need to be in a single array of pointers. So if the driver uses multiple Input or Output queues, it needs to allocate a temporary array just to present all its SBAL pointers in this layout.
This patch slightly changes the format of the QDIO initialization data, so that drivers can pass a per-queue array where each element points to a queue's SBAL array. zfcp doesn't use multiple queues, so the impact there is trivial. For qeth this brings a nice reduction in complexity, and removes a page-sized allocation.
