target/rd: Don't pass incomplete scatterlist entries to sbc_dif_verify_*
The scatterlist for protection information which is passed to sbc_dif_verify_read() or sbc_dif_verify_write() requires that neighboring scatterlist entries are contiguous or chained so that they can be iterated by sg_next(). However, the protection information for RD-MCP backends could be located in the multiple scatterlist arrays when the ramdisk space is too large. So if the read/write request straddles this boundary, sbc_dif_verify_read() or sbc_dif_verify_write() can't iterate all scatterlist entries. This problem can be fixed by chaining protection information scatterlist at creation time. For the architectures which don't support sg chaining (i.e. !CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN), fix it by allocating temporary scatterlist if needed.
