It seems that sunxi_defconfig has CONFIG_NEED_SG_DMA_LENGTH disabled, so
sg_dma_len() defaults to sg->length.
>From include/linux/scatterlist.h:
/*
* These macros should be used after a dma_map_sg call has been done
* to get bus addresses of each of the SG entries and their lengths.
* You should only work with the number of sg entries dma_map_sg
* returns, or alternatively stop on the first sg_dma_len(sg) which
* is 0.
*/
...
#ifdef CONFIG_NEED_SG_DMA_LENGTH
#define sg_dma_len(sg) ((sg)->dma_length)
#else
#define sg_dma_len(sg) ((sg)->length)
#endif
On the other hand, multi_v7_defconfig has CONFIG_NEED_SG_DMA_LENGTH
enabled, so sg_dma_len(sg) defaults to sg->dma_length and it would need
to be used after calling dma_map_sg() (as indicated in the comment from
include/linux/scatterlist.h).
