I'm not sure about the latter anymore. There's somewhat pervasive precedent for
using 'end' as the inclusive limit in vfio_iommu_type1.c. I am all for making
things less confusing. I don't think I can introduce 'end' 'last' convention
without preparing the existing code first.

Thoughts? Spend another commit renaming this to 'last'? Tolerate inconsistency
between vfio and iommufd?
