    struct virtio_scsi_req_cmd {
        // Read-only
        u8 lun[8];
        u64 id;
        u8 task_attr;
        u8 prio;
        u8 crn;
        char cdb[cdb_size];
        char dataout[];
        // Write-only part
        u32 sense_len;
        u32 residual;
        u16 status_qualifier;
        u8 status;
        u8 response;
        u8 sense[sense_size];
        char datain[];
    };

where cdb_size and sense_size come from configuration space.  The device
right now expects everything before dataout/datain to be in a single
descriptor, but that's in no way part of the spec.  Am I missing
something egregious?
