The inhdr is at the end of the S/G list, not the beginning.

Add support for SG_IO passthru (packet commands) to the virtio-blk
backend. Conceptually based on an older patch from Hannes Reinecke
but largely rewritten to match the code structure and layering in
virtio-blk.
Note that currently we issue the hose SG_IO synchronously. We could
easily switch to async I/O, but that would required either bloating
the VirtIOBlockReq by the size of struct sg_io_hdr or an additional
memory allocation for each SG_IO request.

Use the defines added by the previous patch in the virtio drivers.
Also remove the pointless vendor and device args from the
virtio_blk_init() function.

Virtio-blk is a paravirtual block device based on VirtIO. It can be used by
specifying the if=virtio parameter to the -drive parameter.
When using -enable-kvm, it can achieve very good performance compared to IDE or
SCSI.
