[PATCH 6/8] xen/netfront: don't read data from request on the ring page

[Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com>]

In order to avoid a malicious backend being able to influence the local
processing of a request build the request locally first and then copy
it to the ring page. Any reading from the request needs to be done on
the local instance.
