[PATCH] virtio_ring: fix unmap of indirect descriptors
...descriptor chain.
>
> This fix also changes the return code from EIO to ENOSPC in case of a
> mapping error. The reason is that drivers such as virtio_blk may retry
> their request and thus can recover from a mapping error.

Thanks for the patch!
However please, split this to 2 patches.
I think the 1st patch at least is a stable candidate.
About the return code part - could you please add a bit more explanation
in the commit log? E.g. document when does it trigger and what is the
effect of the fix. Thanks!...
