Commit 65b709586e222fa6ffd4166ac7fdb5d5dad113ee upstream.
No, this really is not that commit, so please do not say it is.
Oops, sorry.
Before this patch, if 'offset + len' was equal to
sizeof(struct virtio_net_config), the entire buffer wasn't filled,
returning incorrect values to the caller.
Since 'vdpasim->config' type is 'struct virtio_net_config', we can
safely copy its content under this condition.
Commit 65b709586e22 ("vdpa_sim: add get_config callback in
vdpasim_dev_attr") unintentionally solved it upstream while
refactoring vdpa_sim.c to support multiple devices. But we don't want
to backport it to stable branches as it contains many changes.

I'll be glad to take a one-off patch, but why can't we take the real
upstream patch? That is always the better long-term solution, right?
Because that patch depends on the following patches merged in v5.11-rc1
while refactoring vdpa_sim:
f37cbbc65178 vdpa_sim: make 'config' generic and usable for any device type
cf1a3b35382c vdpa_sim: store parsed MAC address in a buffer
a13b5918fdd0 vdpa_sim: add work_fn in vdpasim_dev_attr
011c35bac5ef vdpa_sim: add supported_features field in vdpasim_dev_attr
2f8f46188805 vdpa_sim: add device id field in vdpasim_dev_attr
6c6e28fe4579 vdpa_sim: add struct vdpasim_dev_attr for device attributes
36a9c3063025 vdpa_sim: rename vdpasim_config_ops variables
423248d60d2b vdpa_sim: remove hard-coded virtq count
Maybe we can skip some of them, but IMHO should be less risky to apply
only this change.
If you want I can try to figure out the minimum sub-set of patches
needed for 65b709586e22 ("vdpa_sim: add get_config callback in
vdpasim_dev_attr").
Thanks,
Stefano
