Stefano Garzarella 9f1b6d013d libvduse: fix buffer overflow in vduse_queue_read_indirect_desc()
vduse_queue_read_indirect_desc() copies an indirect descriptor table
into a buffer in chunks when the table crosses a memory region
boundary. The destination is a struct vring_desc pointer but is
advanced by a byte count, so each increment moves the pointer by
read_len elements instead of read_len bytes, writing beyond the
buffer.

Use a char pointer for the destination so that the arithmetic
advances correctly.

While at it, change the source from a struct vring_desc pointer
to a void pointer: when the table is split across regions,
iova_to_va() can return a pointer into the middle of a descriptor,
so casting it to a struct vring_desc pointer is wrong. The pointer is
only used as a memcpy() source, so a void pointer is fine.

Fixes: CVE-2026-6425
