The rules of an IDAW are fairly simple: Each one can move no more than a defined amount of data, must not cross the boundary defined by that length, and must be aligned to that length as well. The first IDAW in a list is special, in that it does not need to adhere to that alignment, but the other rules still apply. Thus, by reading the first IDAW in a list, the number of IDAWs that will comprise a data transfer of a particular size can be calculated. Let's factor out the reading of that first IDAW with the logic that calculates the length of the list, to simplify the rest of the routine that handles the individual IDAWs.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
