scsi: mptfusion: Fix array out of bounds error
The driver retrieves the number of ports from the hardware. However, the
driver can handle no more than two such ports. It uses a fixed array for
them.

[Severity: Critical]
This is a pre-existing issue, but by only capping numberOfPorts locally here,
does this leave the rest of the fusion sub-drivers vulnerable to out-of-bounds
accesses?
The unclamped ioc->facts.NumberOfPorts is still used in several loops across
the driver, where the bounds of statically sized arrays (like pfacts or
fc_port_page1, both size 2) are exceeded if hardware reports more than 2
ports.
For instance, in drivers/message/fusion/mptfc.c:mptfc_remove():
for (ii=0; ii<ioc->facts.NumberOfPorts; ii++) {
if (ioc->fc_data.fc_port_page1[ii].data) {
dma_free_coherent(&ioc->pcidev->dev,
ioc->fc_data.fc_port_page1[ii].pg_sz,
ioc->fc_data.fc_port_page1[ii].data,
ioc->fc_data.fc_port_page1[ii].dma);
Since fc_port_page1 is size 2, if NumberOfPorts is 8, could this read
adjacent struct members of MPT_ADAPTER and pass them to dma_free_coherent(),
leading to arbitrary invalid frees and a kernel panic?
Similar loops iterating over pfacts exist in mptfc_probe(), mptsas_probe(),
mptspi_probe(), and mptlan_probe().
Would it be safer to clamp ioc->facts.NumberOfPorts directly after retrieving
it from firmware, so all sub-drivers are protected?
