Subject: cxgb4: Fix stack out-of-bounds read due to wrong size to t4_record_mbox()

From: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>


[ Upstream commit 0f3086868e8889a823a6e0f3d299102aa895d947 ]

Passing commands for logging to t4_record_mbox() with size
MBOX_LEN, when the actual command size is actually smaller,
causes out-of-bounds stack accesses in t4_record_mbox() while
copying command words here:

	for (i = 0; i < size / 8; i++)
		entry->cmd[i] = be64_to_cpu(cmd[i]);

Up to 48 bytes from the stack are then leaked to debugfs.

This happens whenever we send (and log) commands described by
structs fw_sched_cmd (32 bytes leaked), fw_vi_rxmode_cmd (48),
fw_hello_cmd (48), fw_bye_cmd (48), fw_initialize_cmd (48),
fw_reset_cmd (48), fw_pfvf_cmd (32), fw_eq_eth_cmd (16),
fw_eq_ctrl_cmd (32), fw_eq_ofld_cmd (32), fw_acl_mac_cmd(16),
fw_rss_glb_config_cmd(32), fw_rss_vi_config_cmd(32),
fw_devlog_cmd(32), fw_vi_enable_cmd(48), fw_port_cmd(32),
fw_sched_cmd(32), fw_devlog_cmd(32).

The cxgb4vf driver got this right instead.

When we call t4_record_mbox() to log a command reply, a MBOX_LEN
size can be used though, as get_mbox_rpl() will fill cmd_rpl up
completely.
