The bitfield dma_inuse is allocated of size dma_requests bits, thus a valid bit address is from 0 to (dma_requests - 1). When find_first_zero_bit() fails, it returns dma_requests as invalid address. Using such address for the following set_bit() is incorrect and, if dma_requests is a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG, it will cause a buffer overflow. Currently this driver is only used in DT stm32h743.dtsi where a safe value dma_requests=16 is not triggering the buffer overflow. Fixed by checking the return value of find_first_zero_bit() _before_ using it.
