Now, on top of that we *could* do something like this...

While debugging this I watched a boot sector, after being loaded at
:7c00, load another 63 sectors at :7e00. It didn't get to use
the prpl at all, and looked something like this...
ns 1 read lba 0+1: 0
Booting from :7c00
ns 1 read lba 1+8: 0
ns 1 read lba 9+8: 0
ns 1 read lba 17+8: 0
ns 1 read lba 25+8: 0
ns 1 read lba 33+8: 0
ns 1 read lba 41+8: 0
ns 1 read lba 49+8: 0
ns 1 read lba 57+7: 0
If we make an *attempt* to align it, such as the proof-of-concept shown
above, then it ends up getting back in sync:
ns 1 read lba 0+1: 0
Booting from :7c00
Restrain to 1 blocks to align (buf 0x7e00 size 4096/512)
ns 1 read lba 1+1: 0
ns 1 read lba 1+62: 0
I just don't know that I care enough about the optimisation to make it
worth the ugliness of that special case in the loop, which includes a
division.

[SeaBIOS] [PATCH v2] nvme: Clean up nvme_cmd_readwrite()
From: David Woodhouse
This ended up with an odd mix of recursion (albeit *mostly*
tail-recursion) and interation that could have been prettier. In
addition, while recursing it potentially adjusted op->count which is
used by callers to see the amount of I/O actually performed.
Fix it by bringing nvme_build_prpl() into the normal loop using 'i'
as the offset in the op.
Fixes: 94f0510dc ("nvme: Split requests by maximum allowed size")
Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse

v2: Fix my bug with checking a u16 for being < 0.
Fix the bug I inherited from commit 94f0510dc but made unconditional.

1. If nvme_build_prpl() returns -1 that becomes (u16)0x and that's >0.

2. We can't do this. Callers expect op->count to contain the number of
blocks of I/O actually performed...

... which means that when my cleanup made it happen unconditionally
instead of only in the case where the max size had been exceeded
and it actually had to recurse, it started showing up in the test
runs. But commit 94f0510dc has the problem already.
Running another full test set now, will post the fixed patch when it
completes.
