Subject: CVE-2021-47130: nvmet: fix freeing unallocated p2pmem

Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nvmet: fix freeing unallocated p2pmem

In case p2p device was found but the p2p pool is empty, the nvme target
is still trying to free the sgl from the p2p pool instead of the
regular sgl pool and causing a crash (BUG() is called). Instead, assign
the p2p_dev for the request only if it was allocated from p2p pool.

This is the crash that was caused:

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
	https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c440cd080761b18a52cac20f2a42e5da1e3995af
