Currently the vhost_zerocopy_callback() maybe be called to decrease
the refcount when sendmsg fails in tun. The error handling in vhost
handle_tx_zerocopy() will try to decrease the same refcount again.
This is wrong. To fix this issue, we only call vhost_net_ubuf_put()
when vq->heads[nvq->desc].len == VHOST_DMA_IN_PROGRESS.

Patch looks good to me. Thanks.

But I think the right Fixes tag would be

Fixes: 0690899b4d45 ("tun: experimental zero copy tx support")
