[ Upstream commit 98c49f1746ac44ccc164e914b9a44183fad09f51 ]
Currently, there is an out-of-bounds read on array hpetp->hp_dev in the following for loop:
870 for (i = 0; i < hdp->hd_nirqs; i++) 871 hpetp->hp_dev[i].hd_hdwirq = hdp->hd_irq[i];
This is due to the recent change from one-element array to flexible-array member in struct hpets:
104 struct hpets { ... 113 struct hpet_dev hp_dev[]; 114 };
This change affected the total size of the dynamic memory allocation, decreasing it by one time the size of struct hpet_dev.
Fix this by adjusting the allocation size when calling struct_size().
