So, finally, I've applied this patch:

--- a/hw/block/virtio-blk.c
+++ b/hw/block/virtio-blk.c
@@ -469,8 +469,9 @@ static void virtio_blk_dma_restart_bh(void *opaque)
     s->rq = NULL;

     while (req) {
+        VirtIOBlockReq *next = req->next;
         virtio_blk_handle_request(req, &mrb);
-        req = req->next;
+        req = next;
     }

     virtio_submit_multiwrite(s->bs, &mrb);

and dropped Stefan's Reviewed-by on the way ;)

This is a bugfix after all ;)

Thanks,
