Thanks for the patch.
It's kind of hard to figure out what you are trying to say
with all the typos and grammar errors in the commit log.
What's up with that?
Please describe the following in the commit log:
- current behaviour is abc
- this is wrong because the virtio spec says def
- as a result we observed guest doing pqr and then stu
- to fix do ghi
- with this fix the guest does xyz as expected
- tested by klm
Also I think you might want to add:
Fixes: 86044b24e8 ("virtio: basic packed virtqueue support")

There's no such thing as "the flag" - descriptors do have a "flags" field
though. And there's no 'chain' value either.
maybe just "
For indirect elems, ndescs is 1. For all other elems, ndescs is the
number of descriptors chained by NEXT (as set in virtqueue_packed_pop).

The patch itself seems correct to me.
