vsock/virtio: discard packets if credit is not respected
If the remote peer doesn't respect the credit information (buf_alloc, fwd_cnt), sending more data than it can send, we should drop the packets to prevent a malicious peer from using all of our memory. This is patch follows the VIRTIO spec: "VIRTIO_VSOCK_OP_RW data packets MUST only be transmitted when the peer has sufficient free buffer space for the payload" Signed-off-by: Stefano Garzarella <sgarzare@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
