Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:
Pre-existing issues:
- [Critical] Processing of FCP_SNS_LEN_VAL and FCP_RESID_UNDER blindly assumes fsp->cmd is valid, leading to a NULL pointer dereference during malformed Task Management Function (TMF) responses.

scsi: libfc: validate FCP response payload length
This commit adds bounds checking for FCP response payloads. It ensures
that the response-info and sense lengths declared by the device do not
exceed the current frame length, preventing out-of-bounds memory accesses.

[Severity: Critical]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does this code lead to a null pointer
dereference if a malformed Task Management Function response is received?
When fc_eh_device_reset() allocates an fsp for a LUN reset, it leaves
fsp->cmd as NULL and sets fsp->wait_for_comp = 1.
If a target responds with a frame where FCP_SNS_LEN_VAL is set but
FCP_RSP_LEN_VAL is clear, the early return for TMF completions is bypassed
and execution falls through to process sense data.
Because fsp->cmd is NULL in this path, will the memcpy() above crash when
attempting to access fsp->cmd->sense_buffer?

[Severity: Critical]
This is a pre-existing issue, but similarly, if the response has
FCP_RESID_UNDER set but FCP_RSP_LEN_VAL clear, will checking
scsi_bufflen(fsp->cmd) and fsp->cmd->underflow also crash when fsp->cmd
is NULL?
