[PATCH 4.9 26/28] UAS: fix alignment of scatter/gather segments

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@xxxxxxxx>

commit 3ae62a42090f1ed48e2313ed256a1182a85fb575 upstream.

This is the UAS version of

747668dbc061b3e62bc1982767a3a1f9815fcf0e
usb-storage: Set virt_boundary_mask to avoid SG overflows

We are not as likely to be vulnerable as storage, as it is unlikelier
that UAS is run over a controller without native support for SG,
but the issue exists.
The issue has been existing since the inception of the driver.

+	 * We have two requirements here. We must satisfy the requirements
+	 * of the physical HC and the demands of the protocol, as we
+	 * definitely want no additional memory allocation in this path
+	 * ruling out using bounce buffers.
 	 *
-	 * But it doesn't suffice for Wireless USB, where Bulk maxpacket
-	 * values can be as large as 2048.  To make that work properly
-	 * will require changes to the block layer.
+	 * For a transmission on USB to continue we must never send
+	 * a package that is smaller than maxpacket. Hence the length of each
+         * scatterlist element except the last must be divisible by the
+         * Bulk maxpacket value.
+	 * If the HC does not ensure that through SG,
+	 * the upper layer must do that. We must assume nothing
