[PATCH] usb: r8a66597-hcd: fix potential divide-by-zero in prepare_packet_read()
From: pip-izony
Date: Sat Jan 10 2026 - 14:22:43 EST
From: Seungjin Bae <eeodqql09@xxxxxxxxx>
The `prepare_packet_read()` function calculates the number of packets
required for a transfer by dividing the transfer buffer length by the
maximum packet size (`td->maxpacket`). The `td->maxpacket` is
initialized in `r8a66597_make_td()` function based on the endpoint
descriptor. However, it does not validate whether `td->maxpacket` is
zero before using it in the `DIV_ROUND_UP` macro.
If a malicious USB device sends a descriptor with `wMaxPacketSize` set to
0, it triggers a divide-by-zero exception (kernel panic).
Fix this by ensuring `td->maxpacket` is greater than 0 before performing
the division.
