[ Upstream commit a16b8d0cf2ec1e626d24bc2a7b9e64ace6f7501d ]
Due to a check recently added to copy_to_user(), it's now not permitted to copy from slab-held data to userspace unless the slab is whitelisted. This affects rxrpc_recvmsg() when it attempts to place an RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID control message in the userspace control message buffer. A warning is generated by usercopy_warn() because the source is the copy of the user_call_ID retained in the rxrpc_call struct.
Work around the issue by copying the user_call_ID to a variable on the stack and passing that to put_cmsg().
The warning generated looks like:
Bad or missing usercopy whitelist? Kernel memory exposure attempt detected from SLUB object 'dmaengine-unmap-128' (offset 680, size 8)!
