[dpdk-stable] [PATCH] virtio: fix buffer leak on vlan insert

[Stephen Hemminger]

The function rte_vlan_insert may allocate a new buffer for the
vlan header and return a different mbuf than originally passed.
In this case, the stored mbuf in txm[] array could point to wrong
buffer.

Fixes: dd856dfcb9e7 ("virtio: use any layout on Tx")
