Subject: [PATCH] vhost: Don't call access_ok() when using IOTLB

When the IOTLB device is enabled, the vring addresses we get from userspace are GIOVAs. It is thus wrong to pass them down to access_ok() which only takes HVAs.

Access validation is done at prefetch time with IOTLB. Teach vq_access_ok() about that by moving the (vq->iotlb) check from vhost_vq_access_ok() to vq_access_ok(). This prevents vhost_vring_set_addr() to fail when verifying the accesses. No behavior change for vhost_vq_access_ok().
