Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

skmsg: Fix wrong last sg check in sk_msg_recvmsg()

Fix one kernel NULL pointer dereference as below:

[ 224.462334] Call Trace:

In commit 9974d37ea75f ("skmsg: Fix invalid last sg check in
sk_msg_recvmsg()"), we change last sg check to sg_is_last(),
but in sockmap redirection case (without stream_parser/stream_verdict/
skb_verdict), we did not mark the end of the scatterlist. Check the
sk_msg_alloc, sk_msg_page_add, and bpf_msg_push_data functions, they all
do not mark the end of sg. They are expected to use sg.end for end
judgment. So the judgment of '(i != msg_rx->sg.end)' is added back here.
