Yeah, I miss that split version needs a desc list.

Sorry, I mean we need check device.flags before off_warp. So it needs an 
smp_rmb() in the middle. It looks to me there's no guarantee that 
VRING_EVENT_F_DESC is set if event index is supported.

Well detach_unused_buf_packed() should be called after device is 
stopped, otherwise even if you try to clear, there will still be a 
window that device may use it.

This looks good to me.
