please remember that the "slave" term has been replaced by the
"target" term. I will change it when applying the patch.

I don't think the Fixes tag is necessary here. This change is
primarily addressing a static analyzer warning. While some cases
come close to a buffer overflow, it couldn’t have occurred in
practice since we don't actually have the devices listed in
npcm_i2caddr[].

Looks a bit hacky, but serves the purpose.
The core issue in "npcm_i2c_slave_enable()" is the lack of an
upper boundary check, which could potentially lead to a buffer
overflow. In practice, we rely on the assumption that these
addresses don’t exist in the real world.
An easier fix could have been:
@@ -629,7 +629,7 @@ static int npcm_i2c_slave_enable(struct npcm_i2c *bus, enum i2c_addr addr_type,
if (addr_type > I2C_SLAVE_ADDR2 && addr_type <= I2C_SLAVE_ADDR10)
dev_err(bus->dev, "try to enable more than 2 SA not supported\n");
- if (addr_type >= I2C_ARP_ADDR)
+ if (addr_type > I2C_SLAVE_ADDR2)
return -EFAULT;
/* Set and enable the address */
But yours is a bit more robust, so that I'm going to take this
patch.
