Subject: HID: logitech: perform bounds checking on device_id early enough

From: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@xxxxxxx>

commit ad3e14d7c5268c2e24477c6ef54bbdf88add5d36 upstream.

device_index is a char type and the size of paired_dj_deivces is 7
elements, therefore proper bounds checking has to be applied to
device_index before it is used.

We are currently performing the bounds checking in
logi_dj_recv_add_djhid_device(), which is too late, as malicious device
could send REPORT_TYPE_NOTIF_DEVICE_UNPAIRED early enough and trigger the
problem in one of the report forwarding functions called from
logi_dj_raw_event().

Fix this by performing the check at the earliest possible ocasion in
logi_dj_raw_event().
