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).
