The worry here is that a large value of hdr.start would cause a
read before the start of the array and a crash in
vfio_msi_set_vector_signal().

The check in vfio_msi_set_block() is not enough:

	if (start + count > vdev->num_ctx)
		return -EINVAL;

A large value of "start" would lead to an integer overflow.

The check in vfio_msi_set_vector_signal() doesn't work either:

	if (vector >= vdev->num_ctx)
		return -EINVAL;

Here "vector" is "count" casted to a signed int so it would be negative
and thus smaller than "vdev->num_ctx" which is also a signed int.

Static analysis stuff.  Untested.

This patch is not beautiful.  There is probably a better limit to use if
I knew the code.
