3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Xi Wang <xi.w...@gmail.com> (cherry picked from commit ad3b904c07dfa88603689bf9a67bffbb9b99beb5) `len' is read from network and thus needs validation. Otherwise a large `len' would cause out-of-bounds access via the memcpy() call. In addition, len = 0xffffffff would overflow the kmalloc() size, leading to out-of-bounds write. This patch adds a check of `len' via ceph_decode_need(). Also use kstrndup rather than kmalloc/memcpy.
