Subject: [PATCH 1/3] util: fix overflow in remap_node_name()

The function remap_node_name() assumes the parameter 'nodedesc' is at
least IB_SMP_DATA_SIZE + 1 (i.e. 65) bytes long, because it passes it to
clean_nodedesc() that writes a nul-terminator to it at offset
IB_SMP_DATA_SIZE. Callers in infiniband-diags/saquery.c pass
a (struct ib_node_desc_t).description as the argument, which is only
IB_NODE_DESCRIPTION_SIZE (i.e. 64) bytes long. This is an overflow.

An odd thing about remap_node_name() is that it may (but does not
always) rewrite the nodedesc in-place. Callers do not appear to
appreciate this behavior. Most of them are various print_* and dump_*
functions where rewriting the input makes no sense. Some callers make a
local copy of the nodedesc first, possibly to protect the original.
One caller (infiniband-diags/saquery.c:print_node_records()) checks if
either the original description or the remapped one matches a given
requested_name - so it looks like it prefers the original to be
not rewritten.

Let's make remap_node_name() a bit safer and more convenient to use.
Allocate a fixed-sized copy first. Then use strncpy to copy from
'nodedesc', never reading more than IB_SMP_DATA_SIZE (64) bytes.
Apply clean_nodedesc() on the correctly-sized copy. This solves the
overflow bug. Also, the in-place rewrite of 'nodedesc' is gone and it
can become a (const char*).

The overflow was found by a static checker (covscan).
