[PATCH 2/2] si2157: Bounds check firmware

From: Laura Abbott
Date: Tue Sep 29 2015 - 20:10:46 EST


When reading the firmware and sending commands, the length
must be bounds checked to avoid overrunning the size of the command
buffer and smashing the stack if the firmware is not in the
expected format. Add the proper check.
