      Virtio-15 removed the ability to have consecutive indirect descriptors (which no OS implemented, but devices had to support).

      If we want really large descriptor chains, we should allow VIRTIO_F_INDIRECT flag to chain inside an indirect table to chain them. This is simpler than the "return to main chain" to implement. But we can always add it later, wiht a new feature bit...
