[ Upstream commit 67cfdd9210 ]
The Netlink fallback path for reading module EEPROM
(fallback_set_params()) validates that offset < eeprom_len,
but does not check that offset + length stays within eeprom_len.
The ioctl equivalent (ethtool_get_any_eeprom() in ioctl.c) has
always enforced both bounds:
if (eeprom.offset + eeprom.len > total_len)
return -EINVAL;
This could lead to surprises in both drivers and device FW.
Add the missing offset + length validation to fallback_set_params(),
mirroring the ioctl.
Similarly - ethtool core in general, and ethtool_get_any_eeprom()
in particular tries to zero-init all buffers passed to the drivers
to avoid any extra work of zeroing things out. eeprom_fallback()
uses a plain kmalloc(), change it to zalloc.
