+vhost_net_ubuf_put_and_wait has a confusing name:
+it will actually also free it's argument.
+Thus since commit 1280c27f8e29acf4af2da914e80ec27c3dbd5c01
+ "vhost-net: flush outstanding DMAs on memory change"
+vhost_net_flush tries to use the argument after passing it
+to vhost_net_ubuf_put_and_wait, this results
+in use after free.
+To fix, don't free the argument in vhost_net_ubuf_put_and_wait,
+add an new API for callers that want to free ubufs.
