[PATCH 1/2] vhost: discard too small descriptor chains

[Maxime Coquelin]

This patch discards descriptor chains which are smaller
than the Virtio-net header size, and ones that are equal.

Indeed, such descriptor chains sizes mean there is no
packet data.

Fixes: 62250c1d0978 ("vhost: extract split ring handling from Rx and Tx functions")
Cc: stable at dpdk.org
CVE-2022-2132
