scsi: be2iscsi: Fix MSI-X IRQ unwind on request failure
This commit fixes the MSI-X IRQ unwind loop in beiscsi_init_irqs() when a
later request_irq() fails. It changes the vector index passed to
pci_irq_vector() from the failing index i to the current unwind index j to
correctly free the registered IRQs.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but since this unwinding code depends on i
which iterates up to phba->num_cpus, can this loop result in a buffer
overflow?
Looking at be2iscsi_enable_msix(), it appears the error handling logic is
inverted when calling pci_alloc_irq_vectors_affinity():
drivers/scsi/be2iscsi/be_main.c:be2iscsi_enable_msix() {
...
if (pci_alloc_irq_vectors_affinity(phba->pcidev, 2, nvec,
PCI_IRQ_MSIX | PCI_IRQ_AFFINITY, &desc) < 0) {
phba->num_cpus = nvec - 1;
return;
}
}
phba->num_cpus = 1;
...
}
On failure (< 0), it sets phba->num_cpus = nvec - 1, where nvec can be up
to 2048, which could lead to out-of-bounds array accesses in functions
iterating over num_cpus. For instance, in beiscsi_dev_probe():
drivers/scsi/be2iscsi/be_main.c:beiscsi_dev_probe() {
...
for (i = 0; i < phba->num_cpus; i++) {
pbe_eq = &phwi_context->be_eq[i];
irq_poll_init(&pbe_eq->iopoll, be_iopoll_budget, be_iopoll);
}
...
}
This loop writes into phwi_context->be_eq[i], which has a static size of
MAX_CPUS (64). Should be2iscsi_enable_msix() handle the return value
differently to prevent this overflow on failure, and to avoid hardcoding
phba->num_cpus = 1 on success?
