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.

This change preventing out-of-bounds reads.

Suraj,

The fixes tag needs to be where the issue originated, not
where you discovered it (which I'm guessing was using 6.12-rc7).

Thank you for your feedback.

Here's how I find the tag:

$ git blame drivers/acpi/nfit/core.c | grep call_pkg | grep buf
ebe9f6f19d80d drivers/acpi/nfit/core.c (Dan Williams       2019-02-07 14:56:50 -0800  458) 		call_pkg = buf;

$ git log -1 --pretty=fixes ebe9f6f19d80d

Thank you for this detailed explaination.
Fixes: ebe9f6f19d80 ("acpi/nfit: Fix bus command validation")

I think ^ should be your Fixes tag.

Yes, I ran the provided steps to verify the commit ID ebe9f6f19d80d and verified it.

I'll update the Fixes tag in the next version of the patch. Additionally, I will re-test with syzbot and submit the revised patch shortly.

Thank you for your time and feedback!

Best,
Suraj Sonawane
