[PATCH v2] USB: serial: io_ti: reject oversized boot-mode firmware

[Pengpeng Hou]

do_boot_mode() copies the firmware payload, excluding its four-byte prefix,
into a fixed 15.5 KiB staging buffer. check_fw_sanity() already proves that
the image contains its seven-byte header and validates the declared image
length and checksum, but it does not impose this boot-mode destination
limit.

Reject images whose payload does not fit before allocating and filling the
staging buffer.

Fixes: d12b219a228e ("edgeport-ti: use request_firmware()")

Changes since v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260701053535.39951-1-pengpeng@xxxxxxxxxxx/
- drop the redundant short-image check already provided by check_fw_sanity()
- state that the issue was found by source review
- add the requested Fixes tag
- rebase onto v7.2-rc4
