VMCI: Fix process-to-process DRGAMs.
When sending between processes, we always schedule a work item. Our work info struct has the message embedded in the middle, which means that we end up overwriting subsequent fields when we copy the (variable-length) message into it. Move it to the end of the struct. Acked-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@vmware.com> Signed-off-by: Andy King <acking@vmware.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
