Hello Vincent,
sometimes it's close to weekend and already late. I've to correct myself.

This 2 here.

Replace the Magic number 2 with a #define.
Is this 2 here.
Obviously with my previous answer I switched into panic mode thinking
already about explaining indirect descriptors and all kind of virtio
details and the expression in depth not realizing any more that
something different was requested.
Appropriate answer:
/* CAN TX needs 2 descriptors: 1 device readable and 1 device writable */
#define CAN_TX_DESC (1 + 1)
Or something with ARRAY_SIZE(sgs) to get the number of elements in sgs
keeping the first 2 above.
And then I'll have to think again whether I really want to keep
sgs_in[1] and sgs_out[1] as arrays. Not now, now is weekend.
