Currently, indirect descriptor mode unnecessarily restricts the maximum
IO size based on virtqueue vringsize. However, the indirect descriptor
mechanism inherently supports larger IO operations by chaining descriptors.
This patch removes the artificial constraint, allowing indirect descriptor
mode to utilize its full potential without being limited by vringsize.
The maximum supported descriptors per IO is now determined by the indirect
descriptor capability rather than the virtqueue size.
