FUJITA Tomonori 1d678f365d DMA-API.txt: fix description of pci_map_sg/dma_map_sg scatterlists handling
- pci_map_sg/dma_map_sg are used with a scatter gather list that doesn't
  come from the block layer (e.g.  some network drivers do).

- how IOMMUs merge adjacent elements of the scatter/gather list is
  independent of how the block layer determines sees elements.
