We don't wakeup the virtqueue if the first byte of pending iova range
is the last byte of the range we just got updated. This will lead a
virtqueue to wait for IOTLB updating forever. Fixing by correct the
check and wake up the virtqueue in this case.

Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com>Without this patch, this command will trigger the IO hang merely every time from host to guest: netperf -H 1.2.3.4 -l 5 -t TCP_RR -- -b 100 After applying, I can run it 10 times continuously without a problem.
