After adding some dumps, I confirm the suspicion:

My board uses 16k pages.

[   64.122462] 000000f0: a0 f8

As you can see, the data following the first block should be
20 78 d0 28 80 f8 30 88 e0 38 90 e8 40 98 f0 48 a0 f8 50 a8 00 58 b0 08 
60 b8 10 68 c0

Instead it is
d8 b0 08 60 b8 10 68 c0 18 70 c8 20 78 d0 28 80 d8 30 88 e0 38 90 e8 40 
98 f0 48 a0 f8

So I guess there is something wrong with sg_copy_to_buffer()
