From: Vivek Goyal <vgo...@redhat.com>

Kernel version 5.17 has increased the size of "struct fuse_init_in" struct.
Previously this struct was 16 bytes and now it has been extended to
64 bytes in size.

Once qemu headers are updated to latest, it will expect to receive 64 byte
size struct (for protocol version major 7 and minor > 6). But if guest is
booting older kernel (older than 5.17), then it still sends older
fuse_init_in of size 16 bytes. And do_init() fails. It is expecting
64 byte struct. And this results in mount of virtiofs failing.

Fix this by parsing 16 bytes only for now. Separate patches will be
posted which will parse rest of the bytes and enable new functionality.
Right now we don't support any of the new functionality, so we don't
lose anything by not parsing bytes beyond 16.
