> Subject: [PATCH] vhost: allow batching hint without size
>
> Commit e2ae38cf3d91 ("vhost: fix hung thread due to erroneous iotlb
> entries") tries to reject the IOTLB message whose size is zero. But
> the size is not necessarily meaningful, one example is the batching
> hint, so the commit breaks that.
>
> Fixing this be reject zero size message only if the message is used to
> update/invalidate the IOTLB.
