David Howells 87dcc7e33f cifs: Fix the smbd_response slab to allow usercopy 
[ Upstream commit 43e7e284fc ]

The handling of received data in the smbdirect client code involves using
copy_to_iter() to copy data from the smbd_reponse struct's packet trailer
to a folioq buffer provided by netfslib that encapsulates a chunk of
pagecache.

If, however, CONFIG_HARDENED_USERCOPY=y, this will result in the checks
then performed in copy_to_iter() oopsing with something like the following:

 CIFS: Attempting to mount //172.31.9.1/test
 CIFS: VFS: RDMA transport established
 usercopy: Kernel memory exposure attempt detected from SLUB object 'smbd_response_0000000091e24ea1' (offset 81, size 63)!
 ------------[ cut here ]------------
 kernel BUG at mm/usercopy.c:102!

 RIP: 0010:usercopy_abort+0x6c/0x80

  ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30

The problem is that the smbd_response slab's packet field isn't marked as
being permitted for usercopy.

Fix this by passing parameters to kmem_slab_create() to indicate that
copy_to_iter() is permitted from the packet region of the smbd_response
slab objects, less the header space.

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.
