This report is confusing because the arguments to usercopy_abort() are wrong.

        /* Reject if object wraps past end of memory. */
        if (ptr + n < ptr)
                usercopy_abort("wrapped address", NULL, to_user, 0, ptr + n);

ptr + n is not 'size', it's what wrapped.  I don't know what 'offset'
should be set to, but 'size' should be 'n'.  Presumably we don't want to
report 'ptr' because it'll leak a kernel address ... reporting 'n' will
leak a range for a kernel address, but I think that's OK?  Admittedly an
attacker can pass in various values for 'n', but it'll be quite noisy
and leave a trace in the kernel logs for forensics to find afterwards.

The root problem would appear to be:

                                else if (copy_to_user(user_arg + offsetof(
                                        struct hidraw_report_descriptor,
                                        value[0]),
                                        dev->hid->rdesc,
                                        min(dev->hid->rsize, len)))

That 'min' should surely be a 'max'?

Jiri, this looks like it was your code back in 2007.
