Thanks for reviewing!

I kept the check here thinking that all devices would benefit from it
because they would need to call vhost_iotlb_add_range() to add an entry
to the iotlb. Isn't that correct? Do you see any other benefit in moving
it to vhost_chr_iter_write()?

One concern I have is that if we move it out some future caller to
vhost_iotlb_add_range() might forget to handle this case.

Thanks!
