Fix missing sanity check in /dev/sg
commit 137d01df511b3afe1f05499aea05f3bafc0fb221 upstream.
What happens is that a write to /dev/sg is given a request with non-zero
->iovec_count combined with zero ->dxfer_len. Or with ->dxferp pointing
to an array full of empty iovecs.
Having write permission to /dev/sg shouldn't be equivalent to the
ability to trigger BUG_ON() while holding spinlocks...
Found by Dmitry Vyukov and syzkaller.
[ The BUG_ON() got changed to a WARN_ON_ONCE(), but this fixes the
underlying issue. - Linus ]
