Subject: [005/289] block: check for proper length of iov entries in blk_rq_map_user_iov()

2.6.36-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@...ionio.com>

commit 9284bcf4e335e5f18a8bc7b26461c33ab60d0689 upstream.

Ensure that we pass down properly validated iov segments before
calling into the mapping or copy functions.
