oh, my bad, maybe the repeated use of the name "vring" led to a
misunderstanding.

What is passed to __vring_new_virtqueue is the structure struct vring

struct vring {
	unsigned int num;

	vring_desc_t *desc;

	vring_avail_t *avail;

	vring_used_t *used;
};

And what contains queue_dma_addr is our newly split structure struct
vring_virtqueue_split

struct vring_virtqueue_split {
	/* Actual memory layout for this queue. */
	struct vring vring;

	/* Last written value to avail->flags */
	u16 avail_flags_shadow;

	/*
	 * Last written value to avail->idx in
	 * guest byte order.
	 */
	u16 avail_idx_shadow;

	/* Per-descriptor state. */
	struct vring_desc_state_split *desc_state;
	struct vring_desc_extra *desc_extra;

	/* DMA address and size information */
	dma_addr_t queue_dma_addr;
	size_t queue_size_in_bytes;

	/*
	 * The parameters for creating vrings are reserved for creating new
	 * vring.
	 */
	u32 vring_align;
	bool may_reduce_num;
};

We have no way to pass queue_dma_addr into __vring_new_virtqueue. But for the
uniformity of the interface, I create a temporary struct vring_virtqueue_split
vring_split(your suggestion) in __vring_new_virtqueue. Then assign the passed
in struct vring to it

	vring.vring = _vring.

So here vring is an empty temporary variable.

As you have replied in other patches, my re-use of the name vring is a mistake,
I will change some places to vring_split and vring_packed.

Thanks.
