      What were you trying to do that didn't work?

      When the guest uses virtio-scsi controller and is protected with smmuv3, after reboot the guest, the qemu process will report a message: "virtio: zero sized buffers are not allowed". Even the guest still works, but seems this does not make sense in the virtquque map. And I found this is a regression from MR https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/src/qemu-kvm/-/merge_requests/223, which included in qemu-kvm-8.2.0-6.el9.

      Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:

      host/guest kernel: 5.14.0-423.el9.aarch64+64k
      qemu: qemu-kvm-8.2.0-6.el9.aarch64
      edk2:edk2-aarch64-20231122-5.el9.noarch

      How reproducible:

      always

      Steps to reproduce

      1. Launch a SCSI guest with smmuv3 protection and iommu_platform=on into virtio-scsi device

      2. Reboot the guest via shell command or qmp command
      {"execute": "system_reset"}
      

      Expected results

      Guest rebooted without anything

      Actual results

      qemu reports:

      qemu-kvm: virtio: zero sized buffers are not allowed
