ACPICA: Fix handling of buffer-size in acpi_ex_write_data_to_field()
Generic Serial Bus transfers use a data struct like this: struct gsb_buffer { u8 status; u8 len; u8 data[0]; }; acpi_ex_write_data_to_field() copies the data which is to be written from the source-buffer to a temp-buffer. This is done because the OpReg-handler overwrites the status field and some transfers do a write + read-back. Commit f99b89eefeb6 ("ACPICA: Update for generic_serial_bus and attrib_raw_process_bytes protocol") acpi_ex_write_data_to_field() introduces a number of problems with this: 1) It drops a "length += 2" statement used to calculate the temp-buffer size causing the temp-buffer to only be 1/2 bytes large for byte/word transfers while it should be 3/4 bytes (taking the status and len field into account). This is already fixed in commit e324e10109fc ("ACPICA: Update for field unit access") which refactors the code. The ACPI 6.0 spec (ACPI_6.0.pdf) "5.5.2.4.5.2 Declaring and Using a GenericSerialBusData Buffer" (page 232) states that the GenericSerialBus Data Buffer Length field is only valid when doing a Read/Write Block (AttribBlock) transfer, but since the troublesome commit we unconditionally use the len field to determine how much data to copy from the source-buffer into the temp-buffer passed to the OpRegion. This causes 3 further issues: 2) This may lead to not copying enough data to the temp-buffer causing the OpRegion handler for the serial-bus to write garbage to the hardware. 3) The temp-buffer passed to the OpRegion is allocated to the size returned by acpi_ex_get_serial_access_length(), which may be as little as 1, so potentially this may lead to a write overflow of the temp-buffer. 4) Commit e324e10109fc ("ACPICA: Update for field unit access") drops a length check on the source-buffer, leading to a potential read overflow of the source-buffer. This commit fixes all 3 remaining issues by not looking at the len field at all (the interpretation of this field is left up to the OpRegion handler), and copying the minimum of the source- and temp-buffer sizes from the source-buffer to the temp-buffer. This fixes e.g. an Acer S1003 no longer booting since the troublesome commit. Fixes: f99b89eefeb6 (ACPICA: Update for generic_serial_bus and ...)
