      I suggest adding description of ‘cmd’ field framing requirement in this

      I suggest adding description of ‘cmd’ field framing requirement in this bullet, as well.

      When using Block-device, legacy scsi commands, while VIRTIO_F_ANY_LAYOUT is
      negotiated, it is not clear if ‘cmd’ field must reside in a single, separate
      device-readable buffer.

      In Section 5.2.6.3 it is written, in general (without reference to
      VIRTIO_F_ANY_LAYOUT) that ‘cmd’ field must reside in a single buffer.

      Section 5.2.6.4, 2^nd bullet describes framing requirements for SCSI commands,
      but does not refer to ‘cmd’ field.
