As discussed: http://lore.kernel.org/all/CACGkMEvq0No8QGC46U4mGsMtuD44fD_cfLcPaVmJ3rHYqRZxYg@mail.gmail.com (local) If the virtio is premapped mode, the driver should manage the dma info by self. So the virtio core should not store the dma info. So we can release the memory used to store the dma info. But if the desc_extra has not dma info, we face a new question, it is hard to get the dma info of the desc with indirect flag. For split mode, that is easy from desc, but for the packed mode, it is hard to get the dma info from the desc. And for hardening the dma unmap is saft, we should store the dma info of indirect descs. So I introduce the "structure the indirect desc table" to allocate space to store dma info with the desc table. On the other side, we mix the descs with indirect flag with other descs together to share the unmap api. That is complex. I found if we we distinguish the descs with VRING_DESC_F_INDIRECT before unmap, thing will be clearer. Because of the dma array is allocated in the find_vqs(), so I introduce a new parameter to find_vqs(). Please review. Thanks
this needs a rebase - conflicts with e.g.

virtio_net: Fix "‘%d’ directive writing between 1 and 11 bytes into a region of size 10" warnings
Fix the warnings when building virtio_net driver.
thanks!
v1:
1. rename transport_vq_config to vq_transport_config
2. virtio-net set dma meta number to (ring-size + 1)(MAX_SKB_FRGAS +2)
3. introduce virtqueue_dma_map_sg_attrs
4. separate vring_create_virtqueue to an independent commit
