This code looks fragile:

1. Relying on unsigned underflow and the while loop in
   vringh_iov_push_iotlb() to handle the case where in_iov.used == 0 is
   risky and could break.

2. Does this assume that the last in_iov element has size 1? For
   example, the guest driver may send a single "in" iovec with size 513
   when reading 512 bytes (with an extra byte for the request status).

Please validate inputs fully, even in test/development code, because
it's likely to be copied by others when writing production code (or
deployed in production by unsuspecting users) :).
