This patch series addresses missing input validation that I came across when
reviewing vhost_user.c.

The first patch explains the security model and the rest fixes places with
missing checks.

Now is a good time to discuss the security model if anyone disagrees or has
questions about what Patch 1 says.

Thanks for the series, I agree validating vhost-user inputs is
necessary.

I'll go through the series, but it will be only for v18.05, as we are
close now to v18.02 release.
