Subject: target/file: Fix BUG() when CONFIG_DEBUG_SG=y and DIF protection enabled

From: Akinobu Mita <[email protected]>

commit 38da0f49e8aa1649af397d53f88e163d0e60c058 upstream.

When CONFIG_DEBUG_SG=y and DIF protection support enabled, kernel BUG()s are triggered due to the following two issues:

1) prot_sg is not initialized by sg_init_table().

When CONFIG_DEBUG_SG=y, scatterlist helpers check sg entry has a correct magic value.

2) vmalloc'ed buffer is passed to sg_set_buf().

sg_set_buf() uses virt_to_page() to convert virtual address to struct page, but it doesn't work with vmalloc address. vmalloc_to_page() should be used instead. As prot_buf isn't usually too large, so fix it by allocating prot_buf by kmalloc instead of vmalloc.
