It's legal to have 'offset + len' equal to
sizeof(struct virtio_net_config), since 'ndev->config' is a
'struct virtio_net_config', so we can safely copy its content under
this condition.

BTW, same error in vdpa_sim you may want to fix.


Commit 65b709586e22 ("vdpa_sim: add get_config callback in vdpasim_dev_attr") unintentionally solved it.

Since it's a simulator, maybe we can avoid solving it in the stable branches. Or does it matter?


I think not, since the module depends on RUNTIME_TESTING_MENU.
