[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] virtio-serial: Check if more max_ports specified than we can handle

[Amit Shah]

Currently virtio-serial supports a maximum of 31 ports. Specifying the
'max_ports' parameter to be > 31 on the cmd line causes badness.

Ensure we initialise virtio-serial only if max_ports is within the
supported range.
