[ Upstream commit 937c783aa3 ]
Add a limit to 'config->vq_num' which is user controlled data which
comes from an vduse_ioctl to prevent large memory allocations.
Micheal says - This limit is somewhat arbitrary.
However, currently virtio pci and ccw are limited to a 16 bit vq number.
While MMIO isn't it is also isn't used with lots of VQs due to
current lack of support for per-vq interrupts.
Thus, the 0xffff limit on number of VQs corresponding
to a 16-bit VQ number seems sufficient for now.
This is found using static analysis with smatch.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
