This is actually broken, and I'm surprised that Vinod even suggested it.

Think about what happens with a scatter-gather list where the addresses
of each element really are scattered in memory.  Let's say that the
N'th element is at a lower address than the first element, and we're on
that N'th element.  What happens when curr is less than chan->start_addr
here:
