Smatch complains about "head->full_size - head->header_size" can
underflow. To some extent, we're always going to have to trust the
firmware a bit. However, it's easy enough to add a check for negatives,
and let's add a upper bounds check as well.

Thanks!
[1/1] ASoC: SOF: Add some bounds checking to firmware data
commit: 98f681b0f84cfc3a1d83287b77697679e0398306
All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.
You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.
If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.
Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.
Thanks,
Mark
