Takashi Sakamoto 52759c0963 ALSA: dice: fix kernel NULL pointer dereference due to invalid calculation for array index
At a commit f91c9d7610 ('ALSA: firewire-lib: cache maximum length of
payload to reduce function calls'), maximum size of payload for tx
isochronous packet is cached to reduce the number of function calls.

This cache was programmed to updated at a first callback of ohci1394 IR
context. However, the maximum size is required to queueing packets before
starting the isochronous context.

As a result, the cached value is reused to queue packets in next time to
starting the isochronous context. Then the cache is updated in a first
callback of the isochronous context. This can cause kernel NULL pointer
dereference in a below call graph:

(sound/firewire/amdtp-stream.c)
amdtp_stream_start()
->queue_in_packet()
  ->queue_packet()
    (drivers/firewire/core-iso.c)
    ->fw_iso_context_queue()
      ->struct fw_card_driver.queue_iso()
      (drivers/firewire/ohci.c)
      = ohci_queue_iso()
        ->queue_iso_packet_per_buffer()
          buffer->pages[page]

The issued dereference occurs in a case that:
 - target unit supports different stream formats for sampling transmission
   frequency.
 - maximum length of payload for tx stream in a first trial is bigger
   than the length in a second trial.

In this case, correct number of pages are allocated for DMA and the 'pages'
array has enough elements, while index of the element is wrongly calculated
according to the old value of length of payload in a call of
'queue_in_packet()'. Then it causes the issue.

This commit fixes the critical bug. This affects all of drivers in ALSA
firewire stack in Linux kernel v4.12 or later.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
