Due to a check recently added to copy_to_user(), it's now not permitted to
copy from slab-held data to userspace unless the slab is whitelisted. This
affects rxrpc_recvmsg() when it attempts to place an RXRPC_USER_CALL_ID
control message in the userspace control message buffer. A warning is
generated by usercopy_warn() because the source is the copy of the
user_call_ID retained in the rxrpc_call struct.
Work around the issue by copying the user_call_ID to a variable on the
stack and passing that to put_cmsg().
The warning generated looks like:
Bad or missing usercopy whitelist? Kernel memory exposure attempt
detected from SLUB object 'dmaengine-unmap-128' (offset 680, size 8)!
