In current implementation vhost will crash with segmentation fault
if malicious or buggy virtio application breaks addresses of descriptors.

Before commit 0823c1cb0a73 this crash was reproducible even with
normal DPDK application that tries to change number of virtqueues
dynamically inside VM.

Fix that by checking addresses of descriptors before using.

Also fixed return value on error for 'copy_mbuf_to_desc_mergeable()'
from '-1' to '0' because it returns unsigned value and it means
number of used descriptors.

Yeah, that's a good fix. Thanks.

Maybe you'd better make it a standalone patch.

Ok. Maybe I should split this patch in two:
1. Fix return value + using of this value (vq->last_used_idx += nr_used;)
2. Check addresses of descriptors.
What do you think?

Version 2:
	* Rebased on top of current master.
	* host's address now checked in meargeable case,
	  because needed refactoring already done.
	* Commit-message changed because old issue with
	  virtio reload accidentially fixed by commit
	  0823c1cb0a73.

So, you discards the workaround from Rich?

I can apply it, if you wish. Should I?

Ditto, this may deserve another patch, too.
