Subject: relayfs: fix out-of-bounds access in relay_file_read
Date: Wed, 19 Apr 2023 12:02:03 +0800

There is a crash in relay_file_read, as the var from
point to the end of last subbuf.

The oops looks something like:
pc : __arch_copy_to_user+0x180/0x310
lr : relay_file_read+0x20c/0x2c8
Call trace:
 __arch_copy_to_user+0x180/0x310
 full_proxy_read+0x68/0x98
 vfs_read+0xb0/0x1d0
 ksys_read+0x6c/0xf0
 __arm64_sys_read+0x20/0x28
 el0_svc_common.constprop.3+0x84/0x108
 do_el0_svc+0x74/0x90
 el0_svc+0x1c/0x28
 el0_sync_handler+0x88/0xb0
 el0_sync+0x148/0x180

We get the condition by analyzing the vmcore:

1). The last produced byte and last consumed byte
    both at the end of the last subbuf

2). A softirq calls function(e.g __blk_add_trace)
    to write relay buffer occurs when an program is calling
    relay_file_read_avail().

        relay_file_read
                relay_file_read_avail
                        relay_file_read_consume(buf, 0, 0);
                        //interrupted by softirq who will write subbuf
                        ....
                        return 1;
                //read_start point to the end of the last subbuf
                read_start = relay_file_read_start_pos
                //avail is equal to subsize
                avail = relay_file_read_subbuf_avail
                //from  points to an invalid memory address
                from = buf->start + read_start
                //system is crashed
                copy_to_user(buffer, from, avail)
