Guangshuo Li 3e4cbd1d46 fbdev: rivafb: fix divide error in nv3_arb() 
commit 0209e21e3c upstream.

A userspace program can trigger the RIVA NV3 arbitration code by calling
the FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO ioctl on /dev/fb*. When doing so, the driver
recomputes FIFO arbitration parameters in nv3_arb(), using state->mclk_khz
(derived from the PRAMDAC MCLK PLL) as a divisor without validating it
first.

In a normal setup, state->mclk_khz is provided by the real hardware and is
non-zero. However, an attacker can construct a malicious or misconfigured
device (e.g. a crafted/emulated PCI device) that exposes a bogus PLL
configuration, causing state->mclk_khz to become zero.  Once
nv3_get_param() calls nv3_arb(), the division by state->mclk_khz in the gns
calculation causes a divide error and crashes the kernel.

Fix this by checking whether state->mclk_khz is zero and bailing out before
doing the division.

The following log reveals it:

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
