net: thunderx: Buffer overwrite on bgx_probe

Hello.
While searching for memory errors in Linux kernel I've come across
drivers/net/ethernet/cavium/thunder/thunder_bgx.ko module.
I've found buffer overwrite at bgx_probe():
Consider device PCI_SUBSYS_DEVID_83XX_BGX.
max_bgx_per_node is set to 4 by set_max_bgx_per_node().
Then on branch:
pci_read_config_word(pdev, PCI_DEVICE_ID, &sdevid);
if (sdevid != PCI_DEVICE_ID_THUNDER_RGX) {
bgx->bgx_id = (pci_resource_start(pdev,
PCI_CFG_REG_BAR_NUM) >> 24) & BGX_ID_MASK;
bgx->bgx_id += nic_get_node_id(pdev) * max_bgx_per_node;
bgx->bgx_id could achieve value 3 + 3 * 4 = 15,
which lead to buffer overwrite on
bgx_vnic[bgx->bgx_id] = bgx;
Question: is it enough for fix to change bgx_vnic's size?
