Subject: aio: check for multiplication overflow in do_io_submit

commit 75e1c70fc31490ef8a373ea2a4bea2524099b478 upstream.
Tavis Ormandy pointed out that do_io_submit does not do proper bounds
checking on the passed-in iocb array:
       if (unlikely(nr < 0))
               return -EINVAL;
       if (unlikely(!access_ok(VERIFY_READ, iocbpp, (nr*sizeof(iocbpp)))))
               return -EFAULT;                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The attached patch checks for overflow, and if it is detected, the
number of iocbs submitted is scaled down to a number that will fit in
the long.  This is an ok thing to do, as sys_io_submit is documented as
returning the number of iocbs submitted, so callers should handle a
return value of less than the 'nr' argument passed in.
