Summary
RDMA/uverbs: Add UVERBS_ATTR_UHW to UVERBS_METHOD_REG_MR
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

RDMA/uverbs: Add UVERBS_ATTR_UHW to UVERBS_METHOD_REG_MR

The original commit missed that three drivers (mthca, irdma, siw) have UHW data associated with reg_mr that cannot be passed through the ioctl. They also assume that the udata cannot be NULL, so failing to pass a valid udata can trigger a NULL udata crash in those drivers.

This never happens in real systems since in rdma-core ibv_cmd_reg_mr_ex() does not accept a udata and those three drivers don't use it, however a malicious userspace could trigger it.
