+ * sg_split - split a scatterlist into several scatterlists
+ * @in: the input sg list
+ * @in_mapped_nents: the result of a dma_map_sg(in, ...), or 0 if not mapped.
+ * @skip: the number of bytes to skip in the input sg list
+ * @nb_splits: the number of desired sg outputs
+ * @split_sizes: the respective size of each output sg list in bytes
+ * @out: an array where to store the allocated output sg lists
+ * @out_mapped_nents: the resulting sg lists mapped number of sg entries. Might
+ *                    be NULL if sglist not already mapped (in_mapped_nents = 0)
+ * @gfp_mask: the allocation flag
+ *
+ * This function splits the input sg list into nb_splits sg lists, which are
+ * allocated and stored into out.
+ * The @in is split into :
+ *  - @out[0], which covers bytes [@skip .. @skip + @split_sizes[0] - 1] of @in
+ *  - @out[1], which covers bytes [@skip + split_sizes[0] ..
+ *                                 @skip + @split_sizes[0] + @split_sizes[1] -1]
+ * etc ...
+ * It will be the caller's duty to kfree() out array members.
+ *
+ * Returns 0 upon success, or error code
