Guenter Roeck 75b52144bc ipmi: Fix handling of messages with provided receive message pointer 
commit e2c69490dd upstream

Prior to commit b52da4054e ("ipmi: Rework user message limit handling"),
i_ipmi_request() used to increase the user reference counter if the receive
message is provided by the caller of IPMI API functions. This is no longer
the case. However, ipmi_free_recv_msg() is still called and decreases the
reference counter. This results in the reference counter reaching zero,
the user data pointer is released, and all kinds of interesting crashes are
seen.

Fix the problem by increasing user reference counter if the receive message
has been provided by the caller.

Fixes: b52da4054e ("ipmi: Rework user message limit handling")

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 Restructured Text 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.
