From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>
Check the event length before adding it for accessing next index in
rb_read_data_buffer(). Since this function is used for validating
possibly broken ring buffers, the length of the event could be broken.
In that case, the new event (e + len) can point a wrong address.
To avoid invalid memory access at boot, check whether the length of
each event is in the possible range before using it.
Fixes: 5f3b6e839f3c ("ring-buffer: Validate boot range memory events")
