So I don't see why your check is needed, what other code path would ever
call this function in a way that the bounds check would be needed?
void usb_serial_generic_read_bulk_callback(struct urb *urb)
385 for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(port->read_urbs); ++i) {
386 if (urb == port->read_urbs[i])
387 break;
388 }
In here, after this for loop is done (without any matching urb), i value
will be equal to ARRAY_SIZE(port->read_urbs). So there is a possibility
of usb_serial_generic_submit_read_urb() getting called with this invalid
index.
If this happens the function was called for a stray URB.
Your check comes to late. We have called set_bit with an invalid index
and other shit.
We definitely do not just want to return an error in that case.
In that case do you think we should use some WARN_ON() for invalid index
in usb_serial_generic_read_bulk_callback()?
