smatch warns that the RC query code could go past the array size:
drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb-v2/rtl28xxu.c:1757 rtl2832u_rc_query() error: buffer overflow 'buf' 128 <= 130
drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb-v2/rtl28xxu.c:1758 rtl2832u_rc_query() error: buffer overflow 'buf' 128 <= 130
The driver logic gets the length of the IR RX buffer with:
ret = rtl28xxu_rd_reg(d, IR_RX_BC, &buf[0]);
...
len = buf[0];
In thesis, this could range between 0 and 255 [1].
While this should never happen in practice, due to hardware limits,
smatch is right when it complains about that, as there's nothing at
the logic that would prevent it. So, if for whatever reason, buf[0]
gets filled by rtl28xx read functions with a value bigger than 128,
it will go past the array.
So, add an explicit check.
[1] I've no idea why smatch thinks that the maximum value is 130.
I double-checked the code several times. Was unable to find any
reason for assuming 130. Perhaps smatch is not properly parsing
u8 here?

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
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.
