Subject: [PATCH] sg, bsg: mitigate read/write abuse, block uaccess in release

As Al Viro noted in commit 128394eff343 ("sg_write()/bsg_write() is not fit
to be called under KERNEL_DS"), sg and bsg improperly access userspace
memory outside the provided buffer, permitting kernel memory corruption via
splice().
But they don't just do it on ->write(), also on ->read() and (in the case
of bsg) even on ->release().

As a band-aid, make sure that the ->read() and ->write() handlers can not
be called in weird contexts (kernel context or credentials different from
file opener), like for ib_safe_file_access().
Also, completely prevent user memory accesses from ->release().

If someone needs to use these interfaces from different security contexts,
a new interface should be written that goes through the ->ioctl() handler.

I've mostly copypasted ib_safe_file_access() over as
scsi_safe_file_access() because I couldn't find a good common header -
please tell me if you know a better way.
The duplicate pr_err_once() calls are so that each of them fires once;
otherwise, this would probably have to be a macro.

I'm CC-ing security@ on this patch in case someone cares a lot, but
since you already need to have some pretty high privileges to use these
devices in the first place, I think this can be handled publicly.

In case anyone is interested in how I found these: I was looking at a
reverse callgraph of __might_fault and spotted the ->release handler of
block/bsg.c in there.
