Subject: [PATCH v1 2/8] bus: mhi: core: Add range check for channel id received in event ring

From: Hemant Kumar <[email protected]>

MHI data completion handler function reads channel id from event
ring element. Value is under the control of MHI devices and can be
any value between 0 and 255. In order to prevent out of bound access
add a bound check against the max channel supported by controller
and skip processing of that event ring element.

I believe your SOB is needed here after Hemant's per section 11 of
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst

How does this work?

I understand the need for the range check, however I looks like this
change doesn't do proper handling.

Since all you do is "continue", we'll remain stuck in the while loop
this exists in, continuously "processing" the same event, failing the
same check, and spamming the kernel log with the WARN_ON output until
the end of time.

What am I missing?

What is the behavior you want? Do you want to just drop/ignore the
invalid event, or issue a reset of the device because it is clearly
misbehaving?

Idea was to drop the event and continue, but continue statement is
wrong here, we need to recycle the event and continue after that. Will
fix in V2.
