  A long time ago Matej Hrica pointed out a possible
buffer overrun when
 receiving data from the qemu socket.  Stefano recently proposed a fix
 for this, but I don't think it's quite right.  This series is a
 different approach to fixing that problem and a few adjacent ones.
 
 David Gibson (5):
   tap: Better report errors receiving from QEMU socket
   tap: Don't attempt to carry on if we get a bad frame length from qemu
   tap: Don't use EPOLLET on Qemu sockets
   tap: Correctly handle frames of odd length
   tap: Improve handling of partially received frames on qemu socket 
Applied. I'm a bit nervous about 3/5 but anyway the series as a whole is
clearly better than the alternative.
