[PATCH] sym53c416: Fix nasty memory corruption

[Ondrej Zary <linux@rainbow-software.org>]

In sym53c416_read(), the chip can (and does sometimes) return more bytes in
the FIFO than we want to read. This causes buffer overflow, resulting in nasty
memory and data corruption and oopses. I couldn't even read filesystem's root
directory properly (and a simple dd with 1M blocksize crashed the system)
without this patch.

Add a check to make sure we never read more bytes than required.
sym53c416_write() already contains similar check.
