Alan Stern 044f4446e0 usb-storage: alauda: Fix uninit-value in alauda_check_media()
commit a6ff6e7a9dd69364547751db0f626a10a6d628d2 upstream.

Syzbot got KMSAN to complain about access to an uninitialized value in
the alauda subdriver of usb-storage:

BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in alauda_transport+0x462/0x57f0
drivers/usb/storage/alauda.c:1137
CPU: 0 PID: 12279 Comm: usb-storage Not tainted 5.3.0-rc7+ #0
Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS
Google 01/01/2011
Call Trace:
  __dump_stack lib/dump_stack.c:77 [inline]
  dump_stack+0x191/0x1f0 lib/dump_stack.c:113
  kmsan_report+0x13a/0x2b0 mm/kmsan/kmsan_report.c:108

  alauda_check_media+0x344/0x3310 drivers/usb/storage/alauda.c:460

The problem is that alauda_check_media() doesn't verify that its USB
transfer succeeded before trying to use the received data.  What
should happen if the transfer fails isn't entirely clear, but a
reasonably conservative approach is to pretend that no media is
present.

A similar problem exists in a usb_stor_dbg() call in
alauda_get_media_status().  In this case, when an error occurs the
call is redundant, because usb_stor_ctrl_transfer() already will print
a debugging message.

Finally, unrelated to the uninitialized memory access, is the fact
that alauda_check_media() performs DMA to a buffer on the stack.
Fortunately usb-storage provides a general purpose DMA-able buffer for
uses like this.  We'll use it instead.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
