cf. what I just said in other patch, I think this check needs to be
moved up to p9_parse_header as p9_check_zc_error has the same problem.

Also, they really need to check against the actual read size, not just
capacity.
For virtio/rdma, something like this ought to fix pdu->size, then
p9_parse_header can just never overwrite it (untested but it's useless
on its own, I'll test the full patch with the parse header change)
