Subject: [v18.11 PATCH v2 1/2] vhost: fix possible denial of service on
 SET_VRING_NUM

vhost_user_set_vring_num() performs multiple allocations
without checking whether data were previously allocated.

It may cause a denial of service because of the memory leaks
that happen if a malicious vhost-user master keeps sending
VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_NUM request until the slave runs out
of memory.

This issue has been assigned CVE-2019-14818
