4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Israel Rukshin <israelr@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 0a475ef4226e305bdcffe12b401ca1eab06c4913 upstream.
After setting indirect_sg_entries module_param to huge value (e.g 500,000),
srp_alloc_req_data() fails to allocate indirect descriptors for the request
ring (kmalloc fails). This commit enforces the maximum value of
indirect_sg_entries to be SG_MAX_SEGMENTS as signified in module param
description.
Fixes: 65e8617fba17 (scsi: rename SCSI_MAX_{SG, SG_CHAIN}_SEGMENTS)
Fixes: c07d424d6118 (IB/srp: add support for indirect tables that don't fit in SRP_CMD)
