    i2c: virtio: fix completion handling · b503de23
    Vincent Whitchurch authored
    The driver currently assumes that the notify callback is only received
    when the device is done with all the queued buffers.
    
    However, this is not true, since the notify callback could be called
    without any of the queued buffers being completed (for example, with
    virtio-pci and shared interrupts) or with only some of the buffers being
    completed (since the driver makes them available to the device in
    multiple separate virtqueue_add_sgs() calls).
    
    This can lead to incorrect data on the I2C bus or memory corruption in
    the guest if the device operates on buffers which are have been freed by
    the driver.  (The WARN_ON in the driver is also triggered.)

    Fix this by calling virtio_get_buf() from the notify handler like other
    virtio drivers and by actually waiting for all the buffers to be
    completed.
