Extra cc's dropped.
Weird, works here (gcc 4.8.2, 32 bit). Hmm, same with 64 bit:

It's worth noting that older GCCs would sometimes successfully inline
the indirect function (ie. sg_next_chained and sg_next_ar) but still
emit an unused copy. Is that happening for you too?
I added a hack to actually measure how much stack we're using (x86-64):
gcc 4.8.4:
[ 3.261826] virtio_blk: stack used = 408
gcc 4.6:
[ 3.276449] virtio_blk: stack depth = 448
Here's the hack I used:
