[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 for-2.3] virtio-blk: correctly dirty guest memory

[Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>]

After qemu_iovec_destroy, the QEMUIOVector's size is zeroed and
the zero size ultimately is used to compute virtqueue_push's len
argument.  Therefore, reads from virtio-blk devices did not
migrate their results correctly.  (Writes were okay).

Save the size in virtio_blk_handle_request, and use it when the request
is completed.

Based on a patch by Wen Congyang.
