rxrpc: Work around usercopy check
Due to a check recently added to copy_to_user(), it's now not permitted to copy from slab-held data to userspace unless the slab is whitelisted. This affects rxrpc_recvmsg() when it attempts to place an RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID control message in the userspace control message buffer. A warning is generated by usercopy_warn() because the source is the copy of the user_call_ID retained in the rxrpc_call struct. Work around the issue by copying the user_call_ID to a variable on the stack and passing that to put_cmsg(). The warning generated looks like: Bad or missing usercopy whitelist? Kernel memory exposure attempt detected from SLUB object 'dmaengine-unmap-128' (offset 680, size 8)! WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1401 at mm/usercopy.c:81 usercopy_warn+0x7e/0xa0 ...
