Jeremy Compostella 89c6efa61f i2c: core-smbus: prevent stack corruption on read I2C_BLOCK_DATA
On a I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA read request, if data->block[0] is
greater than I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX + 1, the underlying I2C driver writes
data out of the msgbuf1 array boundary.

It is possible from a user application to run into that issue by
calling the I2C_SMBUS ioctl with data.block[0] greater than
I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX + 1.

This patch makes the code compliant with
Documentation/i2c/dev-interface by raising an error when the requested
size is larger than 32 bytes.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
