[PATCH 4.14 10/30] nvmet: avoid potential UAF in nvmet_req_complete()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

From: Damien Le Moal <damien.lemoal@opensource.wdc.com>

[ Upstream commit 6173a77b7e9d3e202bdb9897b23f2a8afe7bf286 ]

An nvme target ->queue_response() operation implementation may free the
request passed as argument. Such implementation potentially could result
in a use after free of the request pointer when percpu_ref_put() is
called in nvmet_req_complete().

Avoid such problem by using a local variable to save the sq pointer
before calling __nvmet_req_complete(), thus avoiding dereferencing the
req pointer after that function call.
