  This patch fixes possible FDs leaks when truncation happens
on either the message buffer or its control data. Indeed,
by returning early, it did not let a chance to retrieve the
FDs passed as ancillary data, and so caused a potential FDs
leak.

This patch fixes this by extracting the FDs from the
ancillary data as long as recvmsg() call succeeded. It also
improves the logs to differentiate between MSG_TRUNC and
MSG_CTRUNC.

Fixes: bf472259dde6 ("vhost: fix possible denial of service by leaking FDs")
