Commit d4c08afafa04 ("s390/qeth: streamline SNMP cmd code") removed the bounds checking for req_len, under the assumption that the check in qeth_alloc_cmd() would suffice.
But that code path isn't sufficiently robust to handle a user-provided data_length, which could overflow (when adding the cmd header overhead) before being checked against QETH_BUFSIZE. We end up allocating just a tiny iob, and the subsequent copy_from_user() writes past the end of that iob. Special-case this path and add a coarse bounds check, to protect against maliciuous requests. This let's the subsequent code flow do its normal job and precise checking, without risk of overflow.
