Subject: KVM: s390: avoid memory overwrites on emergency signal injection

From: David Hildenbrand <[email protected]>

commit b85de33a1a3433487b6a721cfdce25ec8673e622 upstream.

Commit 383d0b050106 ("KVM: s390: handle pending local interrupts via bitmap") introduced a possible memory overwrite from user space.

User space could pass an invalid emergency signal code (sending VCPU) and therefore exceed the bitmap. Let's take care of this case and check that the id is in the valid range.
