[PATCH V4 2/4] virtio-net: don't let virtio core to validate used length

From: Jason Wang
Date: Tue Oct 26 2021 - 03:20:20 EST


For RX virtuqueue, the used length is validated in all the three paths
(big, small and mergeable). For control vq, we never tries to use used
length. So this patch forbids the core to validate the used length.
