I will make a separate patch for the next version.

The purpose of this is to fall back to not using indirect when
alloc_indirect_packed returns NULL.

If we check the return value of alloc_indirect_packed() in
virtqueue_add_indirect_packed(), then MUST check the error returned by
virtqueue_add_indirect_packed() to determine whether to fall back to the mode
that does not use indirect.

Thanks.
