Robin Murphy ce1079588e iommu/vt-d: Fix scatterlist offset handling 
commit 29a90b7089 upstream.

The intel-iommu DMA ops fail to correctly handle scatterlists where
sg->offset is greater than PAGE_SIZE - the IOVA allocation is computed
appropriately based on the page-aligned portion of the offset, but the
mapping is set up relative to sg->page, which means it fails to actually
cover the whole buffer (and in the worst case doesn't cover it at all):

    (sg->dma_address + sg->dma_len) ----+
    sg->dma_address ---------+          |
    iov_pfn------+           |          |
                 |           |          |
                 v           v          v
iova:   a        b        c        d        e        f
        |--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
                          <...calculated....>
                 [_____mapped______]
pfn:    0        1        2        3        4        5
        |--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
                 ^           ^          ^
                 |           |          |
    sg->page ----+           |          |
    sg->offset --------------+          |
    (sg->offset + sg->length) ----------+

As a result, the caller ends up overrunning the mapping into whatever
lies beyond, which usually goes badly:

[  429.645492] DMAR: DRHD: handling fault status reg 2
[  429.650847] DMAR: [DMA Write] Request device [02:00.4] fault addr f2682000 ...

Whilst this is a fairly rare occurrence, it can happen from the result
of intermediate scatterlist processing such as scatterwalk_ffwd() in the
crypto layer. Whilst that particular site could be fixed up, it still
seems worthwhile to bring intel-iommu in line with other DMA API
implementations in handling this robustly.

To that end, fix the intel_map_sg() path to line up the mapping
correctly (in units of MM pages rather than VT-d pages to match the
aligned_nrpages() calculation) regardless of the offset, and use
sg_phys() consistently for clarity.

README 

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
