Commit 72b5e8958738 ("virtio-ring: store DMA metadata in desc_extra
for split virtqueue") tries to make it possible for the driver to not
read from the descriptor ring to prevent the device from corrupting
the descriptor ring. But it still read the descriptor flag from the
descriptor ring during buffer detach.
This patch fixes by always store the descriptor flag no matter whether
DMA API is used and then we can avoid reading descriptor flag from the
descriptor ring. This eliminates the possibly of unexpected next
descriptor caused by the wrong flag (e.g the next flag).
