But Is_kmalloc is true if (param_offset != 0 || param_size < buff_len)
So  if (is_kmalloc && param_size > buff_len) implies that param_offset is 0,
Or did I get it wrong?

Still, I think that there is a problem here because nowhere we are checking that  
param_offset + param_size < buff_len, which now can happen because of ufs-bsg.

Maybe you can add it and get rid of that is_kmalloc which is an awkward way to test for valid values?

Thanks,
Avri
