Fix an issue detected by syzbot with KASAN:

BUG: KASAN: vmalloc-out-of-bounds in cmd_to_func drivers/acpi/nfit/
core.c:416 [inline]
BUG: KASAN: vmalloc-out-of-bounds in acpi_nfit_ctl+0x20e8/0x24a0
drivers/acpi/nfit/core.c:459

The issue occurs in `cmd_to_func` when the `call_pkg->nd_reserved2`
array is accessed without verifying that `call_pkg` points to a
buffer that is sized appropriately as a `struct nd_cmd_pkg`. This
could lead to out-of-bounds access and undefined behavior if the
buffer does not have sufficient space.

To address this issue, a check was added in `acpi_nfit_ctl()` to
ensure that `buf` is not `NULL` and `buf_len` is greater than or
equal to `sizeof(struct nd_cmd_pkg)` before casting `buf` to
`struct nd_cmd_pkg *`. This ensures safe access to the members of
`call_pkg`, including the `nd_reserved2` array.

That all sounds good! A couple of coding conventions fixups suggested
below -

Comparison to NULL and sizeof() usage preferred like this:
	if (!buf || buf_len < sizeof(*call_pkg))

Thank you for the feedback and your time.

I appreciate your review and coding convention insights. I have studied the suggested change and updated the patch.

I will test the updated patch with syzbot and submit a new version very shortly.

Best regards,
