Because the low bits have been masked away from offset and added to bytes,

... and the second part is just "bytes < align" (you can distribute
division over addition because offset / align has no reminder, and
simplify to "0 == bytes / align").
Putting it together, it becomes "bytes > 0 && bytes < align", or even
"bytes < align".
Oh, thanks, and the if block also too complicated. If I am right it should
collapse to:
if (bytes < align) {
qemu_iovec_add(&local_qiov, head_buf + bytes,
align - bytes);
bytes = align;
}
Right?
Thanks,
