Thanks for the report, Andrey.

And thanks for fixing this up, Greg. Will you send a proper patch that I
can apply?

A couple of comments below.

Since we're refusing to bind here -ENODEV may be more appropriate. And
I think a dev_err() (or dev_warn()) is warranted too.

So far we have not been bailing probe when the returned connection-info size
wasn't the expected one (we'd only skip the dev_info() above). I'm sure
this is fine, but the tightened check could potentially cause issues if
there are devices returning additional fields.

Perhaps you can merge the above two lines now while at it.
