So in order is clearly doing something funky with the free_head.
It's no longer a head of a linked list of free descriptors, is it?
what is it doing and why? Please add code comments to explain
both where free_list is defined and where it's used.
For example, virtqueue_vring_attach_packed only inits free_list
if not in order. So who will init it for in order? And so on.
