I don't understand this patch. If we have a memory buffer that needs to
be transferred to target memory, then there is no need for bounce
buffers or cpu_physical_memory_map().
Can we use cpu_physical_memory_rw() on each sglist element instead? No
-EAGAIN necessary because the memory buffer already acts as the local
bounce buffer.
