commit 31507fc2ad36e0071751a710449db19c85d82a7f upstream.
When __nvmem_cell_entry_write() is called for an nvmem cell that does
not need bit shifting, it requires that the len parameter exactly
matches the nvmem cell size. However, when the nvmem cell has a nonzero
bit_offset, it was skipping this check.
Accepting values of len larger than the cell size results in
nvmem_cell_prepare_write_buffer() trying to write past the end of a heap
buffer that it allocates. Add a check to avoid that problem and instead
return -EINVAL when len doesn't match the number of bits expected by the
nvmem cell when bit_offset is nonzero.
This check uses cell->nbits in order to allow providing the smaller size
to cells that are shifted into another byte by bit_offset. For example,
a cell with nbits=8 and nonzero bit_offset would have bytes=2 but should
accept a 1-byte write here, although no current callers depend on this.

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.
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.
