In blkif_queue_request blkfront iterates over the scatterlist in order to set the segments of the request, and in blkif_completion blkfront iterates over the raw request, which makes it hard to know the exact position of the source and destination memory positions. This can be solved by allocating a scatterlist for each request, that will be keep until the request is finished, allowing us to copy the data back to the original memory without having to iterate over the raw request.
