Well it is at least better than before because it makes most drivers
work correctly again.
See we only fill the pages array because some drivers (like Exynos) are
still buggy and require this.
Accessing the pages of an DMA-buf imported sg_table is illegal and
should be fixed in the drivers.

That is certainly a good idea for now, but could we also put on
somebodies todo list an item to fix Exynos?
Thanks in advance,
