Sorry for being unclear, what I meant is that we probably should use
zero here. TX doesn't use in buffer actually.
According to the spec, 0 should be the used length:
"and len the total of bytes written into the buffer."

Did you mean vring.desc actually? If yes, it's better not depend on
the descriptor ring which can be modified by the device. We've stored
the flags in desc_extra[].

I'm not sure I get this, in virtqueue_add_split, the buflen[i] only
contains the in buffer length.
I think the fixes are:
1) fixing the vhost vsock
2) use suppress_used_validation=true to let vsock driver to validate
the in buffer length
3) probably a new feature so the driver can only enable the validation
when the feature is enabled.
