vhost: fix OOB in get_rx_bufs()



After batched used ring updating was introduced in commit e2b3b35e
("vhost_net: batch used ring update in rx"). We tend to batch heads in
vq->heads for more than one packet. But the quota passed to
get_rx_bufs() was not correctly limited, which can result a OOB write
in vq->heads.

        headcount = get_rx_bufs(vq, vq->heads + nvq->done_idx,
                    vhost_len, &in, vq_log, &log,
                    likely(mergeable) ? UIO_MAXIOV : 1);

UIO_MAXIOV was still used which is wrong since we could have batched
used in vq->heads, this will cause OOB if the next buffer needs more
than 960 (1024 (UIO_MAXIOV) - 64 (VHOST_NET_BATCH)) heads after we've
batched 64 (VHOST_NET_BATCH) heads:

Fixing this by allocating UIO_MAXIOV + VHOST_NET_BATCH iovs for
vhost-net. This is done through set the limitation through
vhost_dev_init(), then set_owner can allocate the number of iov in a
per device manner.

This fixes CVE-2018-16880.
