<title>lib/mpi: kunmap after finishing accessing buffer</title>

Using sg_miter_start and sg_miter_next, the buffer of an SG is kmap'ed
to *buff. The current code calls sg_miter_stop (and thus kunmap) on the
SG entry before the last access of *buff.

The patch moves the sg_miter_stop call after the last access to *buff to
ensure that the memory pointed to by *buff is still mapped.

In mpi_read_raw_from_sgl we may leak the SG miter resouces after
reading the leading zeroes.  This patch fixes this by stopping the
iteration once the leading zeroes have been read.

Currently the mpi SG helpers use sg_virt which is completely
broken.  It happens to work with normal kernel memory but will
fail with anything that is not linearly mapped.

This patch fixes this by using the SG iterator helpers.

Every implementation of RSA that we have naturally generates
output with leading zeroes.  The one and only user of RSA,
pkcs1pad wants to have those leading zeroes in place, in fact
because they are currently absent it has to write those zeroes
itself.

So we shouldn't be stripping leading zeroes in the first place.
In fact this patch makes rsa-generic produce output with fixed
length so that pkcs1pad does not need to do any extra work.

This patch also changes DH to use the new interface.

mpi_read_from_buffer() and mpi_read_raw_data() do basically the same thing
except that the former extracts the number of payload bits from the first
two bytes of the input buffer.

Besides that, the data copying logic is exactly the same.

Replace the open coded buffer to MPI instance conversion by a call to
mpi_read_raw_data().

<title>lib/mpi: mpi_read_from_buffer(): sanitize short buffer printk</title>

The first two bytes of the input buffer encode its expected length and
mpi_read_from_buffer() prints a console message if the given buffer is too
short.

However, there are some oddities with how this message is printed:
- It is printed at the default loglevel. This is different from the
  one used in the case that the first two bytes' value is unsupportedly
  large, i.e. KERN_INFO.
- The format specifier '%d' is used for unsigned ints.
- It prints the values of nread and *ret_nread. This is redundant since
  the former is always the latter + 1.

Clean this up as follows:
- Use pr_info() rather than printk() with no loglevel.
- Use the format specifiers '%u' in place if '%d'.
- Do not print the redundant 'nread' but the more helpful 'nbytes' value.

Currently, if the input buffer is shorter than the expected length as
indicated by its first two bytes, an MPI instance of this expected length
will be allocated and filled with as much data as is available. The rest
will remain uninitialized.

Instead of leaving this condition undetected, an error code should be
reported to the caller.

Since this situation indicates that the input buffer's first two bytes,
encoding the number of expected bits, are garbled, -EINVAL is appropriate
here.

If the input buffer is shorter than indicated by its first two bytes,
make mpi_read_from_buffer() return -EINVAL.
Get rid of the 'nread' variable: with the new semantics, the total number
of bytes read from the input buffer is known in advance.

mpi_read_from_buffer() reads a MPI from a buffer into a newly allocated
MPI instance. It expects the buffer's leading two bytes to contain the
number of bits, followed by the actual payload.

On failure, it returns NULL and updates the in/out argument ret_nread
somewhat inconsistently:
- If the given buffer is too short to contain the leading two bytes
  encoding the number of bits or their value is unsupported, then
  ret_nread will be cleared.
- If the allocation of the resulting MPI instance fails, ret_nread is left
  as is.

The only user of mpi_read_from_buffer(), digsig_verify_rsa(), simply checks
for a return value of NULL and returns -ENOMEM if that happens.

While this is all of cosmetic nature only, there is another error condition
which currently isn't detectable by the caller of mpi_read_from_buffer():
if the given buffer is too small to hold the number of bits as encoded in
its first two bytes, the return value will be non-NULL and *ret_nread &gt; 0.

In preparation of communicating this condition to the caller, let
mpi_read_from_buffer() return error values by means of the ERR_PTR()
mechanism.

Make the sole caller of mpi_read_from_buffer(), digsig_verify_rsa(),
check the return value for IS_ERR() rather than == NULL. If IS_ERR() is
true, return the associated error value rather than the fixed -ENOMEM.
