Almost :) text not intended for git commit logs like the above

This is a single statement loop, so you do not need {}
around it. Or even better:
for (i = 0; i < vq->vring.num; ++i) {
if (!vq->data[i])
continue;
...
}
which has less nesting.

You wrote that comment, but did you read it :)

In fact, this will return NULL always, won't it?

Please add documentation in virtio.h
