The current size of the firmware is 88,856, thus the value of
RTL8190_MAX_RAW_FIRMWARE_CODE_SIZE should be set to 90,000 to allow for
some growth in the size of the firmware. Using 164,000 wastes a lot of
space.

Do not change this one. rtlpriv->max_fw_size has been set to
sizeof(struct rt_firmware), which is correct.
This appears to reject a firmware blob which is exactly the maximum
size, which looks wrong. Also doesn't this make the max_fw_size field
redundant?
I commented on this one earlier, but to reiterate - max_fw_size is not
redundant.

I agree with you about the semantics of rtlpriv->max_fw_size, but I
don't agree that the size check is correct. While rtlpriv->max_fw_size
has been set to sizeof(struct rt_firmware), that value is _way_ bigger
then the size of the target buffer.
sizeof(struct rt_firmware) == 64000+64000+164000 plus some change
The target buffer size is only 164000 bytes.
I've attached v2 of the patch that is simpler and may serve to better
illustrate my point. By the way, Ben Hutchings was right about the
original patch having an off by one error. This version also clears
rtlpriv->max_fw_size if the size check fails. Probably should have
mentioned that in the commit log.

Subject: [PATCH v2] rtlwifi: rtl8192se firmware load can overflow target buffer
The firmware file size check does not use the
correct limit.
