[48/80] aio: check for multiplication overflow in do_io_submit

[Greg KH]

2.6.35-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 75e1c70fc31490ef8a373ea2a4bea2524099b478 upstream.

Tavis Ormandy pointed out that do_io_submit does not do proper bounds
checking on the passed-in iocb array:

       if (unlikely(nr < 0))
               return -EINVAL;

       if (unlikely(!access_ok(VERIFY_READ, iocbpp, (nr*sizeof(iocbpp)))))
               return -EFAULT;                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The attached patch checks for overflow, and if it is detected, the
number of iocbs submitted is scaled down to a number that will fit in
the long. Â This is an ok thing to do, as sys_io_submit is documented as
returning the number of iocbs submitted, so callers should handle a
return value of less than the 'nr' argument passed in.
