<title>spi: spidev: fix possible arithmetic overflow for multi-transfer message</title>

commit f20fbaad7620af2df36a1f9d1c9ecf48ead5b747 upstream.

`spidev_message()` sums the lengths of the individual SPI transfers to
determine the overall SPI message length.  It restricts the total
length, returning an error if too long, but it does not check for
arithmetic overflow.  For example, if the SPI message consisted of two
transfers and the first has a length of 10 and the second has a length
of (__u32)(-1), the total length would be seen as 9, even though the
second transfer is actually very long.  If the second transfer specifies
a null `rx_buf` and a non-null `tx_buf`, the `copy_from_user()` could
overrun the spidev's pre-allocated tx buffer before it reaches an
invalid user memory address.  Fix it by checking that neither the total
nor the individual transfer lengths exceed the maximum allowed value.

Thanks to Dan Carpenter for reporting the potential integer overflow.

commit c9974ad4aeb36003860100221a594f3c0ccc3f78 upstream.

netpoll can call functions in hard irq context that are ordinarily
called in lesser contexts.  For those functions use dev_kfree_skb_any
and dev_consume_skb_any so skbs are freed safely from hard irq
context.

Replace free_skb with dev_kfree_skb_any in be_tx_compl_process as
which can be called in hard irq by netpoll, softirq context
by normal napi polling, and in normal sleepable context
by the network device close method.
