From: David Windsor <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxx> SCSI sense buffers, stored in struct scsi_cmnd.sense and therefore contained in the scsi_sense_cache slab cache, need to be copied to/from userspace. In support of usercopy hardening, this patch defines a region in the scsi_sense_cache slab cache in which userspace copy operations are allowed. This region is known as the slab cache's usercopy region. Slab caches can now check that each copy operation involving cache-managed memory falls entirely within the slab's usercopy region.
