From: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk>

commit 137d01df511b3afe1f05499aea05f3bafc0fb221 upstream.

What happens is that a write to /dev/sg is given a request with non-zero
->iovec_count combined with zero ->dxfer_len. Or with ->dxferp pointing
to an array full of empty iovecs.

Having write permission to /dev/sg shouldn't be equivalent to the
ability to trigger BUG_ON() while holding spinlocks...

Found by Dmitry Vyukov and syzkaller.

[ The BUG_ON() got changed to a WARN_ON_ONCE(), but this fixes the
underlying issue. - Linus ]

[bwh: Backported to 3.16: we're not using iov_iter, but can check the
byte length after truncation]
