[ Upstream commit f002612b9d86613bc6fde0a444e0095225f6053e ]
This happens when BMC doesn't return any data and the code is trying
to print the value of data[2].
Getting following crash:
[ 484.728410] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000002

Adding a check to validate the data len before printing data[2] to fix this issue.
