3.5.7.28 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Julian Stecklina <jsteckli at os.inf.tu-dresden.de>

commit f9423606ade08653dd8a43334f0a7fb45504c5cc upstream.

The BUG_ON in drivers/iommu/intel-iommu.c:785 can be triggered from userspace via
VFIO by calling the VFIO_IOMMU_MAP_DMA ioctl on a vfio device with any address
beyond the addressing capabilities of the IOMMU. The problem is that the ioctl code
calls iommu_iova_to_phys before it calls iommu_map. iommu_map handles the case that
it gets addresses beyond the addressing capabilities of its IOMMU.
intel_iommu_iova_to_phys does not.

This patch fixes iommu_iova_to_phys to return NULL for addresses beyond what the
IOMMU can handle. This in turn causes the ioctl call to fail in iommu_map and
(correctly) return EFAULT to the user with a helpful warning message in the kernel
log.
