Please clarify whether this describes a closed range [start, last] or an
open range [start, last).

The VIRTIO specification allows per-virtqueue sizes. A device can have
two virtqueues, where the first one allows up to 1024 descriptors and
the second one allows only 128 descriptors, for example.
This constant seems to impose the constraint that all virtqueues have
the same maximum size. Is this really necessary?

I'm not sure what this is?

Same here, please specify whether this is an open range or a closed
range.

There is not enough documentation to use this header file. For example,
which ioctls are used with /dev/vduse and which are used with
/dev/vduse/<name>?
Please document that ioctl API fully. It will not only help userspace
developers but also define what is part of the interface and what is an
implementation detail that can change in the future.
