[PATCH iwl-next v4] e100: prevent shift-out-of-bounds in EEPROM access

[PATCH iwl-next v4] e100: prevent shift-out-of-bounds in EEPROM access

[pavankumaryalagada]

From: Yalagada Pavan Kumar <pavankumaryalagada@gmail.com>

When reading the EEPROM address length, e100_eeprom_read() can return
an invalid length. This value is then used as a shift count when
calculating eeprom_wc, resulting in a shift-out-of-bounds UBSAN warning.

Stop EEPROM address probing if the detected address length exceeds
the initial address length to prevent addr_len from underflowing.

Validate addr_len after reading it from the EEPROM in both
e100_eeprom_load() and e100_eeprom_save(), and return -EIO
if the value is zero or greater than 8.

v4:
 - Squash the v1-v3 changes into a single standalone patch.
 - Prevent addr_len underflow during EEPROM probing.
 - Validate addr_len in e100_eeprom_load() and e100_eeprom_save().
 - Use BIT() and cast the result to u16 for eeprom_wc.
 - Target iwl-next as requested by Tony Nguyen.

Hi Tony,

I send this patch as single standalone patch with all the changes from the previous
versions and targeted it to iwl-next as requested.

Could you please take a look when you get a chance and let me know if any further
changes are needed?

Thanks,
Pavan
