I am still able to trigger reported slab-out-bound with this patch 
applied, please move this sanity check inside betopff_init().


Jiri, does it make sense to add proper error handling of betopff_init()? 
Nowadays betop_probe() just ignores betopff_init() return value. It 
looks wrong to me.


I think, Asha can prepare a patch series with these 2 changes
