Subject: 9p: BUG before corrupting memory

From: Sasha Levin <[email protected]>

commit 5fcb08befaf57faa1b00e514915c1660252b8c26 upstream.

The BUG_ON() in pack_sg_list() would get triggered only one time after we've corrupted some memory by sg_set_buf() into an invalid sg buffer.

I'm still working on figuring out why I manage to trigger that bug...
