Subject: infiniband/uverbs: Fix integer overflows

From: Vlad Tsyrklevich <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 4f7f4dcfff2c19debbcdbcc861c325610a15e0c5 ]

The 'num_sge' variable is verfied to be smaller than the 'sge_count' variable; however, since both are user-controlled it's possible to cause an integer overflow for the kmalloc multiply on 32-bit platforms (num_sge and sge_count are both defined u32). By crafting an input that causes a smaller-than-expected allocation it's possible to write controlled data out-of-bounds.
