lib/firmware_table: Provide buffer length argument to cdat_table_parse()
There exist card implementations with a CDAT table using a fixed size buffer, but with entries filled in that do not fill the whole table length size. Then, the last entry in the CDAT table may not mark the end of the CDAT table buffer specified by the length field in the CDAT header. It can be shorter with trailing unused (zero'ed) data. The actual table length is determined while reading all CDAT entries of the table with DOE. If the table is greater than expected (containing zero'ed trailing data), the CDAT parser fails with: [ 48.691717] Malformed DSMAS table length: (24:0) [ 48.702084] [CDAT:0x00] Invalid zero length [ 48.711460] cxl_port endpoint1: Failed to parse CDAT: -22 In addition, a check of the table buffer length is missing to prevent an out-of-bound access then parsing the CDAT table. Hardening code against device returning borked table. Fix that by providing an optional buffer length argument to acpi_parse_entries_array() that can be used by cdat_table_parse() to propagate the buffer size down to its users to check the buffer length. This also prevents a possible out-of-bound access mentioned. Add a check to warn about a malformed CDAT table length. Cc: Rafael J.
