<title>usb: ljca: bound bank_num in ljca_enumerate_gpio()</title>

<id>dd9483726d0f16c1a56879c3edb65128259a4e2b</id>
<content type='text'>
ljca_enumerate_gpio() reads desc-&gt;bank_num from the device and loops
valid_pin[i] = get_unaligned_le32(...) for i &lt; bank_num. valid_pin[]
holds only LJCA_MAX_GPIO_NUM / 32 = 2 entries.

Two checks run before the loop. The reply length must match
struct_size(desc, bank_desc, bank_num). The product
pins_per_bank * bank_num must not exceed LJCA_MAX_GPIO_NUM. Neither one
bounds bank_num against the size of valid_pin[]. The reply is capped at
LJCA_MAX_PAYLOAD_SIZE (60) bytes, so the struct_size check limits
bank_num to 9. A device that reports bank_num 9 with pins_per_bank 7
still passes both checks. gpio_num is 63 and the reply is 56 bytes. The
loop then writes nine u32 into the two entry array and overruns
valid_pin[] on the stack.

A broken or malicious LJCA device can therefore overflow the stack.
Reject a bank_num that does not fit valid_pin[].

<title>USB: ljca: drop redundant interface reference</title>

Driver core holds a reference to the USB interface while it is bound to
a driver and there is no need to take another reference unless the
interface is needed after disconnect.

Drop the redundant interface reference to reduce cargo culting, make it
easier to spot drivers where an extra reference is needed, and reduce
the risk of memory leaks when drivers fail to release it.

<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

<id>bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<id>69050f8d6d075dc01af7a5f2f550a8067510366f</id>
<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".
