This actually is the same story that we've had with ipr (and, looking at
the code, those two drivers look awfully similar ...).
pmcraid_sglist looks as if it's a hardware-dependent structure, so just
removing one entry from the middle of a structure might not be a good idea.
But this is something for the pmcraid folks to clarify.
