staging: comedi: ni_mio_common: Fix divide-by-zero for DIO cmdtest
commit bafd9c64056cd034a1174dcadb65cd3b294ff8f6 upstream. `ni_cdio_cmdtest()` validates Comedi asynchronous commands for the DIO subdevice (subdevice 2) of supported National Instruments M-series cards. It is called when handling the `COMEDI_CMD` and `COMEDI_CMDTEST` ioctls for this subdevice. There are two causes for a possible divide-by-zero error when validating that the `stop_arg` member of the passed-in command is not too large. The first cause for the divide-by-zero is that calls to `comedi_bytes_per_scan()` are only valid once the command has been copied to `s->async->cmd`, but that copy is only done for the `COMEDI_CMD` ioctl. For the `COMEDI_CMDTEST` ioctl, it will use whatever was left there by the previous `COMEDI_CMD` ioctl, if any. (This is very likely, as it is usual for the application to use `COMEDI_CMDTEST` before `COMEDI_CMD`.) If there has been no previous, valid `COMEDI_CMD` for this subdevice, then `comedi_bytes_per_scan()` will return 0, so the subsequent division in `ni_cdio_cmdtest()` of `s->async->prealloc_bufsz / comedi_bytes_per_scan(s)` will be a divide-by-zero error. To fix this error, call a new function `comedi_bytes_per_scan_cmd(s, cmd)`, based on the existing `comedi_bytes_per_scan(s)` but using a specified `struct comedi_cmd` for its calculations. (Also refactor `comedi_bytes_per_scan()` to call the new function.) Once the first cause for the divide-by-zero has been fixed, the second cause is that `comedi_bytes_per_scan_cmd()` can legitimately return 0 if the `scan_end_arg` member of the `struct comedi_cmd` being tested is 0. Fix it by only performing the division (and validating that `stop_arg` is no more than the maximum value) if `comedi_bytes_per_scan_cmd()` returns a non-zero value.
