Subject: [PATCH] net/virtio: fix buffer leak on VLAN insert
The function rte_vlan_insert may allocate a new buffer for the
vlan header and return a different mbuf than originally passed.
In this case, the stored mbuf in txm[] array could point to wrong
buffer.
Fixes: dd856dfcb9e7 ("virtio: use any layout on Tx")
