splice: missing user pointer access verification (CVE-2008-0009/10)



patch 8811930d in mainline.

vmsplice_to_user() must always check the user pointer and length
with access_ok() before copying. Likewise, for the slow path of
copy_from_user_mmap_sem() we need to check that we may read from
the user region.
