If we need to check that binary_nr is at least one, then this would be the right
change:

        css->fwp = (struct imgu_fw_header *)css->fw->data;
-       if (css->fw->size < sizeof(struct imgu_fw_header *) ||
+       if (css->fw->size < struct_size(css->fwp, binary_header, 1) ||
            css->fwp->file_header.h_size != sizeof(struct imgu_fw_bi_file_h))
                goto bad_fw;
