    dm ioctl: Avoid double-fetch of version
    
    [ Upstream commit 249bed821b4db6d95a99160f7d6d236ea5fe6362 ]
    
    The version is fetched once in check_version(), which then does some
    validation and then overwrites the version in userspace with the API
    version supported by the kernel.  copy_params() then fetches the version
    from userspace *again*, and this time no validation is done.  The result
    is that the kernel's version number is completely controllable by
    userspace, provided that userspace can win a race condition.
    
    Fix this flaw by not copying the version back to the kernel the second
    time.  This is not exploitable as the version is not further used in the
    kernel.  However, it could become a problem if future patches start
    relying on the version field.
