__vringh_iov() overwrites the contents of riov and wiov, in fact it
resets the 'i' and 'used' fields, but also the consumed field should
be reset to avoid an inconsistent state.

I had a question(I remember we had some discussion like this but I
forget the conclusion):
I see e.g in vringh_getdesc_kern() it has the following comment:
/*
* Note that you may need to clean up riov and wiov, even on error!
*/
So it looks to me the correct way is to call vringh_kiov_cleanup() before?
Thanks
