wifi: iwlwifi: correctly lookup DMA address in SG table
The code to lookup the scatter gather table entry assumed that it was possible to use sg_virt() in order to lookup the DMA address in a mapped scatter gather table. However, this assumption is incorrect as the DMA mapping code may merge multiple entries into one. In that case, the DMA address space may have e.g. two consecutive pages which is correctly represented by the scatter gather list entry, however the virtual addresses for these two pages may differ and the relationship cannot be resolved anymore. Avoid this problem entirely by working with the offset into the mapped area instead of using virtual addresses. With that we only use the DMA length and DMA address from the scatter gather list entries. The underlying DMA/IOMMU code is therefore free to merge two entries into one even if the virtual addresses space for the area is not continuous.
