[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 3/4] vhost: fix async vector buffer overrun

[Patrick Fu <patrick.fu@intel.com>]

Add check on the async vector buffer usage to prevent the buf overrun.
If the unused vector buffer is not sufficient to prepare for next
packet's iov creation, an async transfer will be triggered immediately
to free the vector buffer.

Fixes: 78639d54563a ("vhost: introduce async enqueue registration API")
