[PATCH 5.10 090/221] dm ioctl: fix out of bounds array access when no devices

STALE2013d

commit 4edbe1d7bcffcd6269f3b5eb63f710393ff2ec7a upstream.

If there are not any dm devices, we need to zero the "dev" argument in
the first structure dm_name_list. However, this can cause out of
bounds write, because the "needed" variable is zero and len may be
less than eight.

Fix this bug by reporting DM_BUFFER_FULL_FLAG if the result buffer is
too small to hold the "nl->dev" value.
