virtio_ring: fix unmap of indirect descriptors
The function virtqueue_add_split() DMA-maps the scatterlist buffers. In
case a mapping error occurs the already mapped buffers must be unmapped.
This happens by jumping to the 'unmap_release' label.
In case of indirect descriptors the release is wrong and may leak kernel
memory. Because the implementation assumes that the head descriptor is
already mapped it starts iterating over the descriptor list starting
from the head descriptor. However for indirect descriptors the head
descriptor is never mapped in case of an error.
The fix is to initialize the start index with zero in case of indirect
descriptors and use the 'desc' pointer directly for iterating over the
descriptor chain.
