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

scsi: qla2xxx: Reserve extra IRQ vectors

Commit a6dcfe08487e ("scsi: qla2xxx: Limit interrupt vectors to number of
CPUs") lowers the number of allocated MSI-X vectors to the number of CPUs.

That breaks vector allocation assumptions in qla83xx_iospace_config(),
qla24xx_enable_msix() and qla2x00_iospace_config(). Either of the functions
computes maximum number of qpairs as:

  ha->max_qpairs = ha->msix_count - 1 (MB interrupt) - 1 (default
                   response queue) - 1 (ATIO, in dual or pure target mode)

max_qpairs is set to zero in case of two CPUs and initiator mode. The
number is then used to allocate ha->queue_pair_map inside
qla2x00_alloc_queues(). No allocation happens and ha->queue_pair_map is
left NULL but the driver thinks there are queue pairs available.

qla2xxx_queuecommand() tries to find a qpair in the map and crashes:

  if (ha->mqenable) {
          uint32_t tag;
          uint16_t hwq;
          struct qla_qpair *qpair = NULL;

          tag = blk_mq_unique_tag(cmd->request);
          hwq = blk_mq_unique_tag_to_hwq(tag);
          qpair = ha->queue_pair_maphwq]; # <- HERE

          if (qpair)
                  return qla2xxx_mqueuecommand(host, cmd, qpair);
  }

The driver should allocate enough vectors to provide every CPU it's own HW
queue and still handle reserved (MB, RSP, ATIO) interrupts.

The change fixes the crash on dual core VM and prevents unbalanced QP
allocation where nr_hw_queues is two less than the number of CPUs.
