:In order to port this driver, we had to make some changes to the kernel: 
:essentially add kern/subr_sglist.c from FreeBSD and make a probe 
:interface public. The patch file is in the top-level directory of the 
:git tree and was diff'd from master this morning. The file name is:
:0001-kern-changes-for-freeebsd-virtio-driver-port.patch

    Yes, that would be good to bring in.  The SG list stuff is also
    used by the GEM (intel graphics) work.
