[PATCH V5 2/4] virtio-net: don't let virtio core to validate used length

From: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com>
Date: 2021-10-27 02:21:46
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest, virtio net driver · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds, "Michael S. Tsirkin", Jason Wang

For RX virtuqueue, the used length is validated in all the three paths
(big, small and mergeable). For control vq, we never tries to use used
length. So this patch forbids the core to validate the used length.
