Not needed.

Why +1?

vmalloc memory is page aligned, so:

s = min(PAGE_SIZE, size);

> + sg_set_page(sg, pg, s, offset_in_page(data));

Offset is always zero.

sg_ents isn't used anywhere.

That looks a bit strange. I guess you need only one of the two because
the other is the default?

outcnt must be set in both cases.

Changing virtio_gpu_queue_ctrl_buffer to call
virtio_gpu_queue_fenced_ctrl_buffer should be done in a separate patch.
