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.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
