Thanks for the patch. It would require a bug elsewhere in the driver for
this to happen. If some handling for this case is added, it shouldn't be
hiding the issue.

One easy way could be to add WARN_ON() for this, and return some value (as
you do). Zero would do equally well.

I.e.

return WARN_ON(i >= IMGU_NODE_NUM) ? 0 : i;
