Mark Rutland d4ef647510 io_uring: avoid page allocation warnings
In io_sqe_buffer_register() we allocate a number of arrays based on the
iov_len from the user-provided iov. While we limit iov_len to SZ_1G,
we can still attempt to allocate arrays exceeding MAX_ORDER.

On a 64-bit system with 4KiB pages, for an iov where iov_base = 0x10 and
iov_len = SZ_1G, we'll calculate that nr_pages = 262145. When we try to
allocate a corresponding array of (16-byte) bio_vecs, requiring 4194320
bytes, which is greater than 4MiB. This results in SLUB warning that
we're trying to allocate greater than MAX_ORDER, and failing the
allocation.

Avoid this by using kvmalloc() for allocations dependent on the
user-provided iov_len. At the same time, fix a leak of imu->bvec when
registration fails.

Full splat from before this patch:

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.
