[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.18] tracing/probe: reject non-closed empty immediate strings

[Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>]

From: Pengpeng Hou <pengpeng@iscas.ac.cn>

[ Upstream commit 4346be6577aaa04586167402ae87bbdbe32484a4 ]

parse_probe_arg() accepts quoted immediate strings and passes the body
after the opening quote to __parse_imm_string(). That helper currently
computes strlen(str) and immediately dereferences str[len - 1], which
underflows when the body is empty and not closed with double-quotation.

Reject empty non-closed immediate strings before checking for the closing quote.
