> The FQ reply parser code blindly advanced the walk pointer by a length
> value read directly from the hardware reply payload without checking
> that the advance stayed within the allocated reply buffer. A corrupt
> or malicious device response could push ptr beyond the cprbmem region,
> causing an out-of-bounds dereference or kernel memory exposure via the
> subsequent memcpy().
>
> Fix this by tracking the remaining reply buffer space in a variable
> and validating each device-supplied length field against it before
> advancing or dereferencing the pointer.
