[ Upstream commit d7ee81ad09f072eab1681877fc71ec05f9c1ae92 ]
This is similar to commit 674d9de02aa7 ("NFC: Fix possible memory
corruption when handling SHDLC I-Frame commands").
I'm not totally sure, but I think that commit description may have
overstated the danger. I was under the impression that this data came
from the firmware? If you can't trust your networking firmware, then
you're already in trouble.
Anyway, these days we add bounds checking where ever we can and we call
it kernel hardening. Better safe than sorry.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
