[PATCH] platform/x86: hp-wmi: validate WMI return buffer length

[Tristan Madani]

From: Tristan Madani <tristan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

hp_wmi_perform_query() casts the WMI return buffer to struct
bios_return without first checking that the buffer is large enough.
If firmware returns a buffer shorter than sizeof(struct bios_return),
the subsequent subtraction on buffer.length underflows, causing
memcpy to copy a near-maximal number of bytes and crash the kernel.

Add a buffer length check before accessing the return data, matching
the validation already present in the sibling hp-bioscfg driver.

Fixes: c3021ea1beee ("hp-wmi: allow setting input and output buffer sizes separately")
