[PATCH V6 14/19] virtio_ring: determine descriptor flags at one time
Posted by Jason Wang 1 week, 6 days ago
Let's determine the last descriptor by counting the number of sg. This
would be consistent with packed virtqueue implementation and ease the
future in-order implementation.

I would indent this line a bit more to the right - it is a continuation,
after all.
