Rebased against David's linux-nfc for-linus tree [1], as requested.
This was originally a 5-patch series. Two of the five (the
parse_gb_tlv()/parse_connection_tlv() offset-wrap fix and the
nfc_llcp_recv_snl() TLV bounds fix) have since been fixed independently
by other contributors already merged into for-linus:
d8bd2dedbde5 ("nfc: llcp: fix OOB read and u8 offset wrap in TLV parsers")
27256cdb290e ("nfc: llcp: bound SNL TLV parsing to the skb and add length checks")
Those two are dropped from this series to avoid duplicating work. The
remaining three patches are unchanged in substance from v4, just
rebased and renumbered:
1/3 (was 1/5) - nci_store_general_bytes_nfc_dep() u8 underflow
2/3 (was 4/5) - nfc_llcp_recv_dm() OOB read of the reason byte
3/3 (was 5/5) - nfc_llcp_connect_sn() TLV parsing OOB
All three still reproduce against current for-linus (verified against
1671b8fb7300 before rebase). checkpatch --strict is clean on all three.

Hello Lekë,
I'm afraid I won't make you happy here, but after merging the outstanding backlog today, I ran into conflicts again with your patch series. I'm very sorry about that, but I've been receiving a high number of fixes.
Now that I'm back from the conference, if you send the next revision based on the current for-linus / for-next, I believe I'll be able to apply it quickly enough to avoid conflicts.
Thank you for your understanding.
David
