Zhang:

Why not just copy the code that's already in ehci-hub.c?

	/*
	 * Avoid out-of-bounds values while calculating the port index
	 * from wIndex.  The compiler doesn't like pointers to invalid
	 * addresses, even if they are never used.
	 */
	port = (wIndex - 1) & 0xff;
	if (port >= r8a66597->max_root_hub)
		port = 0;
	rh = &r8a66597->root_hub[port];

Also, I see that in the ClearPortFeature, SetPortStatus, and 
SetPortFeature cases in this routine, the code doesn't check for wIndex 
== 0.  That's a bug -- a real one, not just a UBSAN issue.


Uwe:

wIndex should never be == 0 or > max_root_hub in the cases where rh gets 
used; such values would be meaningless.  But we don't control the value 
of wIndex, because it can come from userspace.  So we can't simply 
assume it will always be valid; it has to be checked.

That being understood, the changes Zhang is making here are meant mostly 
to prevent UBSAN and the compiler from complaining or making false 
assumptions.  The actual checks on wIndex occur later in the subroutine.
