Holding locks over device_del -> kobject_del -> sysfs_deactivate can
cause deadlocks if those same locks are grabbed in sysfs show or store
methods.
The I model s_active count + completion as a sleeping read/write lock.
I describe to lockdep sysfs_get_active as a read_trylock,
sysfs_put_active as a read_unlock, and sysfs_deactivate as a
write_lock and write_unlock pair. This seems to capture the essence
for purposes of finding deadlocks, and in my testing gives finds real
issues and ignores non-issues.
This brings us back to holding locks over kobject_del is a problem
that ideally we should find a way of addressing, but at least lockdep
can tell us about the problems instead of requiring developers to debug
rare strange system deadlocks, that happen when sysfs files are removed
while being written to.

The BKL is in this function because of the BKL pushdown (see commit
f8f2c79d59)
It is not needed here because the mutex_lock sonypi_device.lock provides
the necessary locking.
sonypi_misc_ioctl can be converted to unlocked ioctls since it relies on
its own locking (the mutex sonypi_device.lock) and not the bkl

During a manual scan, a user can send command to a nonexistent
lun, precisely at the point of max_lun. Normally it's possible
(but not required) that the firmware has the knowledge that it
is an invalid lun. In the particular case when max_lun is 256,
however, the nonexistent lun 256 will be confused with lun 0,
because the lun member in a request message is only u8, and 256
will become 0. So we need to fix the problem, at least, at the
driver level.

The ipvs code has a nifty system for doing the size of ioctl command
copies; it defines an array with values into which it indexes the cmd
to find the right length.
Unfortunately, the ipvs code forgot to check if the cmd was in the
range that the array provides, allowing for an index outside of the
array, which then gives a "garbage" result into the length, which
then gets used for copying into a stack buffer.
Fix this by adding sanity checks on these as well as the copy size.
