PATCH 1/1 p9_parse_header() validate PDU length

This patch adds checks to the p9_parse_header() function to verify that the length found within the header coincides with the actual length of the PDU. Furthermore, it checks that the length stays within the acceptable range. To do this the patch brings the actual length of the PDU from the different transport layers (rdma and virtio). For TCP (trans_fd.c) the length is not know before, so we get it from the header but we check it anyway that it's within the valid range.

Just a note on transports here, I totally had forgotten about trans_xen when we discussed this earlier as it is fairly new, but it looks like it sets the length in the fcall properly so it should work without any change.

I however cannot test trans=xen, so if someone could either point me to how to set that up (I couldn't find any decent documentation) or do some very basic tests that would be great.

Looks good to me, as the rdma/virtio part come from my suggestion:

(nitpick, I'd keep the empty line here. If you don't mind I'll add it back in my tree; this doesn't warrant a v2)

Still for TCP it you could read "garbage" pre-allocated memory but I don't know how much it is a risk, it might be a good idea to zero it post allocation (I mean pdu->sdata). Allocated at:

Actually, I've been bad advice - this breaks on virtio with zc packets - a read or ls in a big directory fails with this in dmesg

It seems that pdu->capacity is set to less than 4306 at that point, we can just increase it.
