Just when I started to implement this that the bug fix itself does not
have yet the right semantics.

It should be just add a new check:

if (in_size != be32_to_cpu(*((__be32 *) (buf + 2))))
	return -EINVAL;

The existing check is correct. This was missing. The reason for this is
that we process whatever is in the in_size bytes as a full command.

Sorry I didn't notice before I started to implement a test case.
