target/rd: fix or rewrite the copy routine
So the code assumes that the sg list is only a array while in reality loopback SGL memory via scsi_cmnd into target-core may be already chained. This patch converts ramdisk code to use sg_miter logic from scatterlist.h in order to properly support passthrough SGL usage with transport_generic_map_mem_to_cmd() via loopback. With this patch the bug goes away. However after umount/mount of the device my files are gone. So something is still not right. After looking at it for a while I decided to rewrite the that part of the code and now things do work for me.
