[PATCH v2] media: dvb-frontends: ds3000: validate firmware size

[Pengpeng Hou]

The firmware diagnostic accesses the first two and last two bytes
without proving that the image contains two bytes. An undersized image
can therefore be read outside its bounds when the diagnostic is enabled.

Reject images smaller than two bytes before the diagnostic or upload
path consumes them.

The issue was found by our static-analysis tool.

Include the tool-discovery and coding-assistance provenance requested by
Jonathan Corbet; retain the two-byte minimum check.
