[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] vhost: fix off-by-one error on nr_desc check

[Maxime Coquelin]

nr_desc is not an index but the number of descriptors,
so can be equal to the virtqueue size.

Fixes: a436f53ebfeb ("vhost: avoid dead loop chain")

Hi Yuanhan,

I faced the bug while testing my indirect descriptor patch, it happens
as soon as the number of chained descritors is above 2.

But the bug may in theory also be faced with normal descriptors, so it might
be good to have it 16.07?

Regards,
Maxime
