Subject: [PATCH 4/9] virtio_console: validate max_nr_ports before trying to use it

We calculate nr_ports based on the max_nr_ports:

nr_queues = use_multiport(portdev) ? (nr_ports + 1) * 2 : 2;

If the device advertises a large max_nr_ports, we will end up with a
integer overflow. Fixing this by validating the max_nr_ports
advertised by the device in .validate() and clear the MULTIPORT is
it's greater than 0x8000 (which is guaranteed be safe).
