Thanks for the reminder.  Could you please try this patch?

---8<---
The helper mpi_read_raw_from_sgl ignores the second parameter
nbytes when reading the SG list and may overrun its own buffer
because it only allocates enough memory according to nbytes.

Fixes: 2d4d1eea540b ("lib/mpi: Add mpi sgl helpers")

Tried, could not boot the UML kernel.

After looking, it seems we have to call sg_miter_stop(). Or 
alternatively, we could let sg_miter_next() be called but not writing 
anything inside the loop.

With either of those fixes, the tests pass (using one scatterlist).

I think it should look like:

	while (nbytes) {
		sg_miter_next(&miter);
		...
	}
	sg_miter_stop(&miter);
