Subject: [PATCH] can: flexcan: fix NULL pointer exception during bringup
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Commit cbffaf7aa09e ("can: flexcan: Always use last mailbox for TX")
introduced a loop letting i run up to (including) ARRAY_SIZE(regs->mb)
and in the body accessed regs->mb[i] which is an out-of-bounds array
access that then resulted in an access to an reserved register area.

Later this was changed by commit 0517961ccdf1 ("can: flexcan: Add
provision for variable payload size") to iterate a bit differently but
still runs one iteration too much resulting to call

	flexcan_get_mb(priv, priv->mb_count)

which results in a WARN_ON and then a NULL pointer exception. This
only affects devices compatible with "fsl,p1010-flexcan",
"fsl,imx53-flexcan", "fsl,imx35-flexcan", "fsl,imx25-flexcan",
"fsl,imx28-flexcan", so newer i.MX SoCs are not affected.
