Can you check scsi_debug for this series? I took this series only up to 
this change, and got:

I suspect that you would need to also change the PAGE_SIZE check in 
__blk_bios_map_sg() also. However, I am not confident that the change 
below is ok to begin with...

BTW, scsi_debug does use an insane max_segment_size of -1
