First of all, rename "todo" to "done".
Second, clearly separate the case of done == 0 with the case of done != 0.
This will help handling reference counting in the next patch.
Third, this test:
if (memory_region_get_ram_addr(mr) + xlat != raddr + todo) {
does not guarantee that the memory region is the same across two iterations
of the while loop. For example, you could have two blocks:
A) size 640 K, mapped at physical address 0, ram_addr_t 0
B) size 64 K, mapped at physical address 0xa0000, ram_addr_t 0xa0000
then mapping 1 M starting at physical address zero will erroneously treat
B as the continuation of block A. qemu_ram_ptr_length ensures that no
invalid memory is accessed, but it is still a pointless complication of
the algorithm. The patch makes the logic clearer with an explicit test
that the memory region is the same.
