I wanted to keep it there in the event someone tries to use a usb device
that needs scatter-gather with CONFIG_PS3_DYNAMIC_DMA=3Dy.  Currently,
CONFIG_PS3_DYNAMIC_DMA=3Dy only supports alloc_coherent and map_single.

I plan to rework the entire CONFIG_PS3_DYNAMIC_DMA to use Ben's fixes for
iommu support, but until then, I think it would be safer to keep this.
