[PATCH] kobject: Fix global-out-of-bounds in kobject_action_type()

[Xia Fukun <xiafukun@huawei.com>]

The following c language code can trigger KASAN's global variable
out-of-bounds access error in kobject_action_type():

int main() {
    int fd;
    char *filename = "/sys/block/ram12/uevent";
    char str[86] = "offline";
    int len = 0x56;

    fd = open(filename, O_WRONLY);
    if (fd == -1) {
        printf("open");
        exit(1);
    }

    if (write(fd, str, len) == -1) {
        printf("write");
        exit(1);
    }

    close(fd);
    return 0;
}

Function kobject_action_type() receives the input parameters buf and count,
where count is the length of the string buf.

In the use case we provided, count is 86, the count_first is 85.
Buf points to a string with a length of 86, and its first seven
characters are "offline".
In line 87 of the code, kobject_actions[action] is the string "offline"
with the length of 7,an out-of-boundary access will appear:

kobject_actions[action][85].

Modify the comparison logic to determine whether count_first is equal to
the length of string kobject_actions[action]. This can fix the problem.
