* repeated sequences of { Length[i], Length[i+1], Address[i],

* boundaries). If N is even, then Length[N+1] should be set to 0 and
* Address[N+1] is omitted.

* The following calculation incorporates all of the above. It's
* somewhat hard to follow but, briefly: the "+2" accounts for the
* first two flits which include the DSGL header, Length0 and
* Address0; the "(3*(n-1))/2" covers the main body of list entries (3
* flits for every pair of the remaining N) +1 if (n-1) is odd; and
* finally the "+((n-1)&1)" adds the one remaining flit needed if
