CVE-2026-97957

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

net: hinic: fix mailbox segment buffer overflow

check_mbox_seq_id_and_seg_len() validates that seq_id does not
exceed SEQ_ID_MAX_VAL (42) and seg_len does not exceed
MBOX_SEG_LEN (48).  However, this allows the last segment
(seq_id=42) to carry a full 48-byte payload, writing to offset
42*48=2016 for 48 bytes (ending at byte 2064).  The receive
buffer is only MBOX_MAX_BUF_SZ (2048) bytes, resulting in a
16-byte heap buffer overflow.

The hinic3 driver already handles this correctly by defining
MBOX_LAST_SEG_MAX_LEN and rejecting the last segment when it
exceeds the remaining buffer space.  Apply the same fix to the
hinic driver.
