[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.
