Subject[PATCH 3.16 304/306] sg_write()/bsg_write() is not fit to be called under KERNEL_DS
3.16.40-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

commit 128394eff343fc6d2f32172f03e24829539c5835 upstream.

Both damn things interpret userland pointers embedded into the payload;
worse, they are actually traversing those. Leaving aside the bad
API design, this is very much _not_ safe to call with KERNEL_DS.
Bail out early if that happens.
