commit 7c2fd76048 upstream.
On an NVMe namespace that does not support metadata, it is possible to
send an IO command with metadata through io-passthru. This allows issues
like [1] to trigger in the completion code path.
nvme_map_user_request() doesn't check if the namespace supports metadata
before sending it forward. It also allows admin commands with metadata to
be processed as it ignores metadata when bdev == NULL and may report
success.
Reject an IO command with metadata when the NVMe namespace doesn't
support it and reject an admin command if it has metadata.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
