From: Yufeng Wang <[email protected]>
The clear_user() call in VHOST_GET_FEATURES_ARRAY incorrectly starts
at argp, which is the beginning of the features array, overwriting the
data just written by copy_to_user(). It should start after the copied
elements at argp + copied * sizeof(u64) to only zero the trailing
unused space.
Use size_mul() for both the offset and length calculations so the
arithmetic stays consistent with the surrounding code and remains
overflow-safe.
Fixes: 333c515d1896 ("vhost-net: allow configuring extended features")

Changes in v2:
- Use size_mul() for the offset calculation as well, per review feedback.

Note:
Thank you for your review and suggestions.
I tried to add a switch in tools/virtio/vhost_net_test.c.
The switch is meant to use VHOST_GET_FEATURES_ARRAY and
VHOST_SET_FEATURES_ARRAY instead of the legacy versions.
However, when I ran `make virtio` in the tools directory,
the build failed with an error: missing asm/percpu_types.h.
I fixed that error, but then another error appeared.
Would it be acceptable to postpone the submission of
this test case until I have sorted out all the build
errors?
