/* A Direct Scatter Gather List uses 32-bit lengths and 64-bit PCI DMA
* addresses. The DSGL Work Request starts off with a 32-bit DSGL
* ULPTX header, then Length0, then Address0, then, for 1 <= i <= N,
* repeated sequences of { Length[i], Length[i+1], Address[i],
* Address[i+1] } (this ensures that all addresses are on 64-bit
* boundaries). If N is even, then Length[N+1] should be set to 0 and
* Address[N+1] is omitted.
*
* The following calculation incorporates all of the above. It's
* somewhat hard to follow but, briefly: the "+2" accounts for the
* first two flits which include the DSGL header, Length0 and
* Address0; the "(3*(n-1))/2" covers the main body of list entries (3
* flits for every pair of the remaining N) +1 if (n-1) is odd; and
* finally the "+((n-1)&1)" adds the one remaining flit needed if
* (n-1) is odd ...
