Subject: CVE-2020-15859 QEMU: net: e1000e: use-after-free while sending

Hello,
A use-after-free issue was found in the INTEL 82574 NIC (e1000e) emulator of

packet data address to e1000e's MMIO address. A guest user/process could use
this flaw to crash the QEMU process on the host resulting in DoS scenario.
