[libata] kill ata_sg_is_last()
Short term, this works around a bug introduced by early sg-chaining work. Long term, removing this function eliminates a branch from a hot path loop in each scatter/gather table build. Also, as this code demonstrates, we don't need to _track_ the end of the s/g list, as long as we mark it in some way. And doing so programatically is nice. So its a useful cleanup, regardless of its short term effects. Based conceptually on a quick patch by Jens Axboe. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
