Hi Stephen,

I don't think this patch is necessary, did you touch some real
problem?

We save scatterlist point in sgs[], one list can have 0, 1 or more than 1 items.

In virtio_rng.c: virtqueue_add_sgs()

   /* Count them first. */
   for (i = total_out = total_in = 0; i < out_sgs; i++) {
           struct scatterlist *sg;
           for (sg = sgs[i]; sg; sg = sg_next(sg))
                   total_out++;
   }

Each item of sgs[] will be visited, all the scatter entries of one scatterlist
will also be visited.

In my testing (w/o this patch), multicast addresses can be sent to qemu.
