Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo d1f8280887 io_uring: truncate lengths larger than MAX_RW_COUNT on provide buffers
Read and write operations are capped to MAX_RW_COUNT. Some read ops rely on
that limit, and that is not guaranteed by the IORING_OP_PROVIDE_BUFFERS.

Truncate those lengths when doing io_add_buffers, so buffer addresses still
use the uncapped length.

Also, take the chance and change struct io_buffer len member to __u32, so
it matches struct io_provide_buffer len member.

This fixes CVE-2021-3491, also reported as ZDI-CAN-13546.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
