It is important in the case there are only some deleted regions, and
no added region, or in general when the last callback is a ->region_del().

But it is even better to just call vhost_verify_ring_mappings() once,
from the ->region_commit() callback.

Either drop the ranges_overlap check, or keep the start_addr/end_addr
up-to-date.  Compared to Michael's prototype patch, that would be like
this:

   vhost_begin()
   {
       dev->mem_changed_end_addr = 0;
       dev->mem_changed_start_addr = -1;
   }

   vhost_set_memory()
   {
       ...
       dev->mem_changed_start_addr = MIN(dev->mem_changed_start_addr, start_addr);
       dev->mem_changed_end_addr = MAX(dev->mem_changed_end_addr, start_addr + size - 1);
   }

   vhost_commit()
   {
       if (dev->mem_changed_start_addr > dev->mem_changed_end_addr) {
           return;
       }
       start_addr = dev->mem_changed_start_addr;
       size = dev->mem_changed_end_addr - dev->mem_changed_start_addr + 1;
       ...
   }
