Subject: nvmem: mxs-ocotp: fix buffer overflow in read

From: Stanislav Meduna <stano@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit d1306eb675ad7a9a760b6b8e8e189824b8db89e7 upstream.

This patch fixes the issue where the mxs_ocotp_read is reading
the ocotp in reg_size steps but decrements the remaining size
by 1. The number of iterations is thus four times higher,
overwriting the area behind the output buffer.
