In order to avoid privilege escalations or crashes in case of malicious backends verify the data to be within expected limits. Especially make sure that the response always references an outstanding request. Introduce a new state of the ring BLKIF_STATE_ERROR which will be switched to in case an inconsistency is being detected. Recovering from this state is possible only via removing and adding the virtual device again (e.g. via a suspend/resume cycle).

Doesn't the barrier prevent rp from not being loaded at this point?
I asked Jan the same and he didn't want to rule that out. Additionally the READ_ONCE() helps against (rather improbable) load tearing of the compiler.

This case shouldn't happen normally, so having the numerical value is enough and will help for hiding any undefined op.

Fine with me. Juergen
