[PATCH 4.9 126/329] kernel/relay.c: limit kmalloc size to KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2018-05-28 10:32:00
Also in: lkml

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com>

[ Upstream commit 88913bd8ea2a75d7e460a4bed5f75e1c32660d7e ]

chan->n_subbufs is set by the user and relay_create_buf() does a kmalloc()
of chan->n_subbufs * sizeof(size_t *).

kmalloc_slab() will generate a warning when this fails if
chan->subbufs * sizeof(size_t *) > KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE.

Limit chan->n_subbufs to the maximum allowed kmalloc() size.
