The first indirect descriptor is located at start of the indirect
descriptor table (index 0), additional indirect descriptors are
chained by next field. An indirect descriptor without next field

indirect descriptor can not refer to another indirect descriptor
table (flags&VRING_DESC_F_INDIRECT must be off). A single indirect descriptor
table can include both read-only and write-only descriptors;
