[PATCH v3 1/7] file-posix: fix max_iov for /dev/sg devices

[Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>]

Even though it was only called for devices that have bs->sg set (which
must be character devices),
sg_get_max_segments looked at /sys/dev/block which only works for
block devices.

On Linux the sg driver has its own way to provide the maximum number of
iovecs in a scatter/gather list.
