hv_sock: Copy packets sent by Hyper-V out of the ring buffer

Browse source

Pointers to VMbus packets sent by Hyper-V are used by the hv_sock driver
within the guest VM.  Hyper-V can send packets with erroneous values or
modify packet fields after they are processed by the guest.  To defend
against these scenarios, copy the incoming packet after validating its
length and offset fields using hv_pkt_iter_{first,next}().  Use
HVS_PKT_LEN(HVS_MTU_SIZE) to initialize the buffer which holds the
copies of the incoming packets.  In this way, the packet can no longer
be modified by the host.
