vhost_iotlb_itree_first() requires `start` and `last` parameters
to search for a mapping that overlaps the range.

In translate_desc() we cyclically call vhost_iotlb_itree_first(),
incrementing `addr` by the amount already translated, so rightly
we move the `start` parameter passed to vhost_iotlb_itree_first(),
but we should hold the `last` parameter constant.

Let's fix it by saving the `last` parameter value before incrementing
`addr` in the loop.

I'm not sure about the fixes tag. On the one I used this patch should
apply cleanly, but looking at the latest stable (4.9), maybe we should
use

Fixes: a9709d6874d5 ("vhost: convert pre sorted vhost memory array to interval tree")

I think this should be the right commit to fix.

Yeah, @Michael should I send a v2 with that tag?
