Subject: [PATCH 3.16 45/83] dm table: fix invalid memory accesses with too
 high sector number

3.16.78-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@...hat.com>

commit 1cfd5d3399e87167b7f9157ef99daa0e959f395d upstream.

If the sector number is too high, dm_table_find_target() should return a
pointer to a zeroed dm_target structure (the caller should test it with
dm_target_is_valid).

However, for some table sizes, the code in dm_table_find_target() that
performs btree lookup will access out of bound memory structures.

Fix this bug by testing the sector number at the beginning of
dm_table_find_target(). Also, add an "inline" keyword to the function
dm_table_get_size() because this is a hot path.

Fixes: 512875bd9661 ("dm: table detect io beyond device")
