[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/i40e: fix out-of-bounds writes during vector Rx

From: Sergey Dyasly <s.dyasly at samsung.com>

Rx loop inside _recv_raw_pkts_vec() ignores nb_pkts argument and always
tries to receive RTE_I40E_VPMD_RX_BURST (32) packets. This is a violation
of rte_eth_rx_burst() API and can lead to memory corruption (out-of-bounds
writes to struct rte_mbuf **rx_pkts) if nb_pkts is less than 32.

Fix this by actually using nb_pkts inside the loop.

Fixes: 9ed94e5bb04e ("i40e: add vector Rx")
