[PATCH 1/3] misc: fastrpc: reject oversized DMA allocations

From: Yousef Alhouseen

Date: Thu Jun 25 2026 - 04:57:50 EST


FastRPC keeps invoke and mmap buffer sizes in u64 fields, but coherent
DMA allocation takes a size_t. On 32-bit builds, a size above SIZE_MAX
can be truncated before allocation while the larger value is still used
in the message sent to the DSP.

Reject sizes that cannot fit in size_t before allocating the DMA buffer.
Also make the inline payload alignment step overflow-aware so a
near-U64_MAX accumulator cannot wrap before the later bounds checks.
