    media: dvbdev: prevent the risk of out of memory access
    
    [ Upstream commit 972e63e895abbe8aa1ccbdbb4e6362abda7cd457 ]
    
    The dvbdev contains a static variable used to store dvb minors.
    
    The behavior of it depends if CONFIG_DVB_DYNAMIC_MINORS is set
    or not. When not set, dvb_register_device() won't check for
    boundaries, as it will rely that a previous call to
    dvb_register_adapter() would already be enforcing it.
    
    On a similar way, dvb_device_open() uses the assumption
    that the register functions already did the needed checks.
    
    This can be fragile if some device ends using different
    calls. This also generate warnings on static check analysers
    like Coverity.
    
    So, add explicit guards to prevent potential risk of OOM issues.
