From: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 3a20773beeeeadec41477a5ba872175b778ff752 upstream. Since nl_groups is a u32 we can't bind more groups via ->bind (netlink_bind) call, but netlink has supported more groups via setsockopt() for a long time and thus nlk->ngroups could be over 32. Recently I added support for per-vlan notifications and increased the groups to 33 for NETLINK_ROUTE which exposed an old bug in the netlink_bind() code causing out-of-bounds access on archs where unsigned long is 32 bits via test_bit() on a local variable. Fix this by capping the maximum groups in netlink_bind() to BITS_PER_TYPE(u32), effectively capping them at 32 which is the minimum of allocated groups and the maximum groups which can be bound via netlink_bind().
