Should be 72e8543093df ("vhost: add API to get MTU value") ?

It would be better to also check the `path` from user input, e.g.

https://github.com/DPDK/dpdk/blob/3ed37e09342cfe416eb2c930d960ba47143af697/lib/librte_vhost/socket.c#L561

In above case, it can be done in find_vhost_user_socket()

It would be better to do the check in this way: (!dev || !buf)
for consistency.

Thanks for the work!
