Rusty Russell 42b36cc0ce virtio: Force use of power-of-two for descriptor ring sizes ... The virtio descriptor rings of size N-1 were nicely set up to be aligned to an N-byte boundary. But as Anthony Liguori points out, the free-running indices used by virtio require that the sizes be a power of 2, otherwise we get problems on wrap (demonstrated with lguest). So we replace the clever "2^n-1" scheme with a simple "align to page boundary" scheme: this means that all virtio rings take at least two pages, but it's safer than guessing cache alignment.
