Re: [PATCH v1 1/8] virtio: Force only split mode with protected guest

I agree, but I want to know why indirect descriptor needs to be 
disabled. The table can't be wrote by the device since it's not 
coherent swiotlb mapping.
I had all kinds of problems with uninitialized entries in the indirect 
table. So I gave up on it and concluded it would be too difficult to secure.
