Subject: [PATCH 2/3] scsi: megaraid_sas: check user-provided offsets

It sounds unwise to let user space pass an unchecked 32-bit
offset into a kernel structure in an ioctl. This is an unsigned
variable, so checking the upper bound for the size of the structure
it points into is sufficient to avoid data corruption, but as
the pointer might also be unaligned, it has to be written carefully
as well.

While I stumbled over this problem by reading the code, I did not
continue checking the function for further problems like it.
