This does fix vexpress. However I think we're still doing the wrong
thing if the bounce buffer is already in use and addr points at an
IO page. In the old code, we would break out of the loop on the
if (done || bounce.buffer) condition, set *plen to 0 [because done==0
since this is the first page] and return. Now we break out of the
loop but will fall into the call to qemu_ram_ptr_length() with a
bogus addr1 and probably abort().
You probably want to only call qemu_ram_ptr_length() if (todo).
(I don't know if anybody ever calls this routine with a zero input
length, but that would handle that case too.)
It would also be better to either (a) not initialise addr1, if
the compiler is smart enough to know it can't get to the use
without it being initialised or (b) initialise it to an obviously
bogus value if we have to do so to shut the compiler up.
(Also 'addr1' is not a fantastic variable name :-))
