I have not yet replied with "Reviewed-by" to this patch so you are not
yet allowed to add my Reviewed-by tag to this patch.

Should a check be added here that desc_buf[QUERY_DESC_LENGTH_OFFSET]
<= QUERY_DESC_MAX_SIZE to protect against firmware bugs? Since
QUERY_DESC_MAX_SIZE == 255, adding BUILD_BUG_ON(QUERY_DESC_SIZE != 255)
and a comment may be sufficient.

Thanks,

Bart.
