Hi All:

This series treis to do more hardening for virito.

patch 1 validates the num_queues for virio-blk device.
patch 2-4 validates max_nr_ports for virito-console device.
patch 5-7 harden virtio-pci interrupts to make sure no exepcted
interrupt handler is tiggered. If this makes sense we can do similar
things in other transport drivers.
patch 8-9 validate used ring length.

Smoking test on blk/net with packed=on/off and iommu_platform=on/off.

Please review.

Thanks

So I poked at console at least, and I think I see
an issue: if interrupt handler queues a work/bh,
then it can still run while reset is in progress.

Looks like a bug which is unrelated to the hardening? E.g the driver
should sync with work/bh before reset.

I sent a patch to fix it for console removal specifically,
but I suspect it's not enough e.g. freeze is still broken.
And note this has been reported without any TDX things -
it's not a malicious device issue, can be triggered just
by module unload.

I am vaguely thinking about new APIs to disable/enable callbacks.
An alternative:

1. adding new remove_nocb/freeze_nocb calls
2. disabling/enabling interrupts automatically around these
3. gradually moving devices to using these
4. once/if all device move, removing the old callbacks

the advantage here is that we'll be sure calls are always
paired correctly.

I'm not sure I get the idea, but my feeling is that it doesn't
conflict with the interrupt hardening here (or at least the same
method is required e.g NO_AUTO_EN).

Thanks
