[PATCH] scsi: mpt3sas: fix a missing-check bug

[Wenwen Wang <wang6495@umn.edu>]

In _ctl_ioctl_main(), 'ioctl_header' is first copied from the userspace
pointer 'arg'. 'ioctl_header.ioc_number' is then verified by
_ctl_verify_adapter(). If the verification is failed, an error code -ENODEV
is returned. Otherwise, the verification result, i.e., the MPT3SAS adapter
that matches with the 'ioctl_header.ioc_number', is saved to 'ioc'. Later
on, if the 'cmd' is MPT3COMMAND, the whole ioctl command struct is copied
again from the userspace pointer 'arg' and saved to 'karg'. Then the
function _ctl_do_mpt_command() is invoked to execute the command with the
adapter 'ioc' and 'karg' as inputs.

Given that the pointer 'arg' resides in userspace, a malicious userspace
process can race to change the 'ioc_number' between the two copies, which
will cause inconsistency issues, potentially security issues since an
inconsistent adapter could be used with the command struct 'karg' as inputs
of _ctl_do_mpt_command(). Moreover, the user can potentially provide a
valid 'ioc_number' to pass the verification, and then modify it to an
invalid 'ioc_number'. That means, an invalid 'ioc_number' can potentially
bypass the verification check.

To fix this issue, we need to recheck the 'ioc_number' copied after the
second copy to make sure it is not changed since the first copy.
