CVE-2025-39949

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

qed: Don't collect too many protection override GRC elements

In the protection override dump path, the firmware can return far too
many GRC elements, resulting in attempting to write past the end of the
previously-kmalloc'ed dump buffer.

This will result in a kernel panic with reason:

 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ADDRESS

where "ADDRESS" is just past the end of the protection override dump
buffer. The start address of the buffer is:
 p_hwfn->cdev->dbg_features[DBG_FEATURE_PROTECTION_OVERRIDE].dump_buf
and the size of the buffer is buf_size in the same data structure.

The panic can be arrived at from either the qede Ethernet driver path:

or the qedf storage driver path:

Resolve this by clamping the firmware's return value to the maximum
number of legal elements the firmware should return.
