If two or more items are queued on dev->work_list before vhost_worker() starts processing these then the value of work->done_seq will be set to the sequence number of a work item that has not yet been processed. Avoid this by letting vhost_worker() count the number of items that have already been processed. Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@xxxxxxx> Cc: Michael S.
