Fix CVE-2017-11600.
Upstream commit: 7bab09631c2a303f87a7eb7e3d69e888673b9b7e
The 'dir' parameter in xfrm_migrate() is user-controlled and was used as an
array index without validating it against XFRM_POLICY_MAX. This could lead to
out-of-bounds access, kernel lockup, and denial-of-service via a crafted
XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE netlink message when CONFIG_XFRM_MIGRATE is enabled.
This patch adds a sanity check for 'dir' (dir >= XFRM_POLICY_MAX) and rejects
invalid values with -EINVAL.
