aix_partition() reads the logical-volume descriptor array as a single
sector and then scans it:
if (numlvs && (d = read_part_sector(state, vgda_sector + 1, §))) {
struct lvd *p = (struct lvd *)d;
...
for (i = 0; foundlvs < numlvs && i < state->limit; i++) {
lvip[i].pps_per_lv = be16_to_cpu(p[i].num_lps);
p points at a single 512-byte sector, which holds SECTOR_SIZE /
sizeof(struct lvd) = 16 entries, but the loop runs until foundlvs reaches
the on-disk numlvs or i reaches state->limit (DISK_MAX_PARTS, 256).
numlvs is an on-disk __be16 read straight from the volume group
descriptor and is not validated, so a crafted AIX image with numlvs
larger than 16 and lvd entries whose num_lps fields are zero (so foundlvs
never advances) drives the loop to read p[i] well past the end of the
read sector buffer.
Commit d97a86c170 ("partitions: aix.c: off by one bug") hardened the
matching write of lvip[lv_ix] in 2014 but left this read loop unbounded.
Bound the scan to the number of struct lvd entries that fit in the
sector that was actually read.
