vhost/vsock: Avoid allocating arbitrarily-sized SKBs

commit 10a886aaed upstream.

vhost_vsock_alloc_skb() returns NULL for packets advertising a length
larger than VIRTIO_VSOCK_MAX_PKT_BUF_SIZE in the packet header. However,
this is only checked once the SKB has been allocated and, if the length
in the packet header is zero, the SKB may not be freed immediately.

Hoist the size check before the SKB allocation so that an iovec larger
than VIRTIO_VSOCK_MAX_PKT_BUF_SIZE + the header size is rejected
outright. The subsequent check on the length field in the header can
then simply check that the allocated SKB is indeed large enough to hold
the packet.
