Subject: [PATCH 0/3] virtio: simplify virtio_ring.

I resurrected these patches after prompting from Andy Lutomirski's
recent patches.  I put them on the back-burner because vring_bench
had a 15% slowdown on my laptop: pktgen testing revealed a speedup,
if anything, so I've cleaned them up.

Rusty Russell (3):
  virtio_net: pass well-formed sgs to virtqueue_add_*()
  virtio_ring: assume sgs are always well-formed.
  virtio_ring: unify direct/indirect code paths.
