… SQE

scsi_bsg_uring_cmd() and scsi_bsg_map_user_buffer() read bsg_uring_cmd
fields directly from the shared mmap'd io_uring submission ring via
io_uring_sqe128_cmd().  On the inline execution path, io_uring has not
yet copied the SQE to kernel memory, so a concurrent userspace thread
can modify fields between reads.

cmd->request_len is read for the bounds check, for the cmd_len
assignment, and for the copy_from_user length.  A racing thread can
change request_len between the bounds check (passes with <= 32) and
copy_from_user (uses the enlarged value), overflowing the 32-byte
scmd->cmnd[] buffer into subsequent struct scsi_cmnd fields.

scsi_bsg_map_user_buffer() independently re-derives its cmd pointer
from the same shared SQE, re-reading dout_xfer_len, din_xfer_len,
dout_xferp, and din_xferp, enabling direction confusion and buffer
length races.

Copy struct bsg_uring_cmd to a stack-local variable before use in both
functions.  The pointer variable 'cmd' is redirected to the local copy
so the rest of each function is unchanged.

Tested with KASAN on QEMU (virtio-scsi, 2 vCPUs).  Without this fix,
a two-thread race produces:

  BUG: KASAN: wild-memory-access in scsi_queue_rq+0x4a3/0x58a0
