Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] vhost-scsi: fix page reference leak in misaligned I/O fallback

> iov_iter_get_pages2() returns a byte count that excludes the offset into
> the first page, but also returns a reference to that page in pages[].

> On the misaligned-I/O fallback, vhost_scsi_revert_map_iov_to_sgl() puts
> pages already added to the SG list. The cleanup loop starts at
> pages[npages], but accounts for its first page as PAGE_SIZE bytes
> rather than PAGE_SIZE - offset. If the remaining data starts at a
> non-zero offset, it can finish one page early and leave a page reference

> Use PAGE_SIZE - offset for the first remaining page and clear offset for
> later pages, as in the mapping loop. Without this, each affected request
