The GPA / IOVA are ordered but we're looking by QEMU's vaddr.

If we have these translations:
[0x1000, 0x2000] -> [0x10000, 0x11000]
[0x2000, 0x3000] -> [0x6000, 0x7000]

We will see them in this order, so we cannot stop the search at the first node.

No, it is just simplicity. We already have an user in the hot patch in
the master branch, vhost_svq_vring_write_descs. But I never profiled
enough to find if it is a bottleneck or not to be honest.

I'll send the new series by today, thank you for finding these issues!
