commit a54afbc8a2138f8c2490510cf26cde188d480c43 upstream.
The call to nvme_free_sgls() in nvme_unmap_data() has the sg_list and sge
parameters swapped. This wasn't noticed by the compiler because both share
the same type. On a Xen PV hardware domain, and possibly any other
architectures that takes that path, this leads to corruption of the NVMe
contents.
Fixes: f0887e2a52d4 ("nvme-pci: create common sgl unmapping helper")

[nb: drop the attrs parameter added in 6.19 by commit 61d43b1731e0
("nvme-pci: migrate to dma_map_phys instead of map_page"), which is
not in 6.18.y]

This hits 6.18 too: besides the known Xen PV issue, the missing fix
leads to corrupted data on NVMe disks with SGL support on BCM2712
(Raspberry Pi 5).
