MHI data completion handler function reads channel id from event
ring element. Value is under the control of MHI devices and can be
any value between 0 and 255. In order to prevent out of bound access
add a bound check against the max channel supported by controller
and skip processing of that event ring element.

I believe your SOB is needed here after Hemant's per section 11 of Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst

How does this work?

I understand the need for the range check, however I looks like this change doesn't do proper handling.

Since all you do is "continue", we'll remain stuck in the while loop this exists in, continuously "processing" the same event, failing the same check, and spamming the kernel log with the WARN_ON output until the end of time.

What am I missing?

What is the behavior you want? Do you want to just drop/ignore the invalid event, or issue a reset of the device because it is clearly misbehaving?
