When the IOTLB device is enabled, the vring addresses we get from userspace are GIOVAs. It is thus wrong to pass them to vq_access_ok() which only takes HVAs. The IOTLB map is likely empty at this stage, so there isn't much that can be done with these GIOVAs. Access validation will be performed at IOTLB prefetch time anyway.
