Add a limit to 'config->vq_num' which is user controlled data which
comes from an vduse_ioctl to prevent large memory allocations.
Micheal says - This limit is somewhat arbitrary.
However, currently virtio pci and ccw are limited to a 16 bit vq number.
While MMIO isn't it is also isn't used with lots of VQs due to
current lack of support for per-vq interrupts.
Thus, the 0xffff limit on number of VQs corresponding
to a 16-bit VQ number seems sufficient for now.
This is found using static analysis with smatch.

v1->v2: Change title of the commit and description, add a limit to
vq_num.
v2->v3: Improve commit message to include reason for setting limit to
0xffff
Only compile and boot tested.
