[PATCH] isdn: hisax: fix buffer overflow check

[Arnd Bergmann]

gcc-8 warns about a corner case that can overflow a memcpy buffer when a
length variable is negative. While the code checks for an overly large
value, it does not check for a negative length that would get turned
into a large positive number:

In function 'memcpy',
    inlined from 'skb_put_data' at include/linux/skbuff.h:2042:2,
    inlined from 'l3dss1_cmd_global' at drivers/isdn/hisax/l3dss1.c:2219:4:
include/linux/string.h:348:9: error: '__builtin_memcpy' reading 266 or more bytes from a region of size 265 [-Werror=stringop-overflow=]

In function 'memcpy',
    inlined from 'skb_put_data' at include/linux/skbuff.h:2042:2,
    inlined from 'l3ni1_cmd_global' at drivers/isdn/hisax/l3ni1.c:2079:4:
include/linux/string.h:348:9: error: '__builtin_memcpy' reading between 266 and 4294967295 bytes from a region of size 265 [-Werror=stringop-overflow=]

It's not clear to me whether the warning should be here, or if this
is another case of an optimization step in gcc causing a warning about
something that would otherwise be silently ignored. Either way, making
the length 'unsigned int' instead ensures that no overflow can happen
here, and avoids the warning. The same code exists in two files, so I'm
patching both the same way.
