Let's use llist_head and friends please (I am guessing we want
single-linked to avoid writing into indirect buffer after use,
invalidating the cache, but please document why in a comment). Do not
open-code it.
Also hide all casts in inline wrappers.

Add an inline wrapper for checking sg versus VIRT_QUEUE_CACHE_DESC_NUM.

Hmm. This will allocate more entries than actually used. Why do it?
