From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 3c4cea8fa7f71f00c5279547043a84bc2a4d8b8c upstream. If the sendmsg() call in vhost_tx_batch() fails, both the 'batched_xdp' and 'done_idx' indexes are left unchanged. If such failure happens when batched_xdp == VHOST_NET_BATCH, the next call to vhost_net_build_xdp() will access and write memory outside the xdp buffers area. Since sendmsg() can only error with EBADFD, this change addresses the issue explicitly freeing the XDP buffers batch on error.
