<title>lz4: add overrun checks to lz4_uncompress_unknownoutputsize()</title>

Jan points out that I forgot to make the needed fixes to the
lz4_uncompress_unknownoutputsize() function to mirror the changes done
in lz4_decompress() with regards to potential pointer overflows.

The only in-kernel user of this function is the zram code, which only
takes data from a valid compressed buffer that it made itself, so it's
not a big issue.  But due to external kernel modules using this
function, it's better to be safe here.

Pull SCSI target fixes from Nicholas Bellinger:
 "Mostly minor fixes this time around.  The highlights include:

   - iscsi-target CHAP authentication fixes to enforce explicit key
     values (Tejas Vaykole + rahul.rane)
   - fix a long-standing OOPs in target-core when a alua configfs
     attribute is accessed after port symlink has been removed.
     (Sebastian Herbszt)
   - fix a v3.10.y iscsi-target regression causing the login reject
     status class/detail to be ignored (Christoph Vu-Brugier)
   - fix a v3.10.y iscsi-target regression to avoid rejecting an
     existing ITT during Data-Out when data-direction is wrong (Santosh
     Kulkarni + Arshad Hussain)
   - fix a iscsi-target related shutdown deadlock on UP kernels (Mikulas
     Patocka)
   - fix a v3.16-rc1 build issue with vhost-scsi + !CONFIG_NET (MST)"

* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending:
  iscsi-target: fix iscsit_del_np deadlock on unload
  iovec: move memcpy_from/toiovecend to lib/iovec.c
  iscsi-target: Avoid rejecting incorrect ITT for Data-Out
  tcm_loop: Fix memory leak in tcm_loop_submission_work error path

There is one other possible overrun in the lz4 code as implemented by
Linux at this point in time (which differs from the upstream lz4
codebase, but will get synced at in a future kernel release.)  As
pointed out by Don, we also need to check the overflow in the data
itself.

While we are at it, replace the odd error return value with just a
"simple" -1 value as the return value is never used for anything other
than a basic "did this work or not" check.

wrap a few internal variables, causing unknown things to happen.  Catch
this before the wrapping happens and abort the decompression.

The lzo decompressor can, if given some really crazy data, possibly
overrun some variable types.  Modify the checking logic to properly
detect overruns before they happen.
