[PATCH net] vhost_net: do not report a used len larger than receive buffer size

From: Jason Wang
Date: Wed Feb 12 2014 - 00:58:13 EST


Currently, even if the packet were truncated by lower socket, we still
report the packet size as the used len which may confuse guest
driver. Fixes this by returning the size of guest receive buffer instead.

Fixes 3a4d5c94e959359ece6d6b55045c3f046677f55c
(vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio server)
