Subject: [PATCH 4.9 14/14] vhost: make sure log_num < in_num

From: yongduan <yongduan@...cent.com>

commit 060423bfdee3f8bc6e2c1bac97de24d5415e2bc4 upstream.

The code assumes log_num < in_num everywhere, and that is true as long as
in_num is incremented by descriptor iov count, and log_num by 1. However
this breaks if there's a zero sized descriptor.

As a result, if a malicious guest creates a vring desc with desc.len = 0,
it may cause the host kernel to crash by overflowing the log array. This
bug can be triggered during the VM migration.

There's no need to log when desc.len = 0, so just don't increment log_num
in this case.
