of: module: add buffer overflow check in of_modalias()
[ Upstream commit cf7385cb26ac4f0ee6c7385960525ad534323252 ]
In of_modalias(), if the buffer happens to be too small even for the 1st
snprintf() call, the len parameter will become negative and str parameter
(if not NULL initially) will point beyond the buffer's end. Add the buffer
overflow check after the 1st snprintf() call and fix such check after the
strlen() call (accounting for the terminating NUL char).
