+ * Currently the Launcher uses a write to /dev/lguest, and the return value is
+ * the address of the DMA structure with the interrupt number placed in
+ * dma->used_len.  If we wanted to return the entire array, we need to return
+ * the address, array size and interrupt number: this seems to require an
