[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 1/3] xen: fix quad word bufioreq handling

[Jan Beulich]

We should not consume the second slot if it didn't get written yet.
Normal writers - i.e. Xen - would not update write_pointer between the
two writes, but the page may get fiddled with by the guest itself, and
we're better off avoiding to enter an infinite loop in that case.

v2: Bail (using hw_error()) instead of just breaking the loop.
