Subject: [net-next 02/15] i40e: validate VSI param from VFs

From: Mitch Williams <mitch.a.williams@...el.com>

Validate that the VF has sent us a valid VSI index before actually using
that index. Without this code, a malicious or buggy VF driver could
panic the host by sending an invalid index into the VSI array.
