[PATCH 5.14 120/151] mlxsw: thermal: Fix out-of-bounds memory accesses

From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@nvidia.com>

commit 332fdf951df8b870e3da86b122ae304e2aabe88c upstream.

Currently, mlxsw allows cooling states to be set above the maximum
cooling state supported by the driver:

# cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone2/cdev0/type
mlxsw_fan
# cat /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone2/cdev0/max_state
10
# echo 18 > /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone2/cdev0/cur_state
# echo $?
0

This results in out-of-bounds memory accesses when thermal state
transition statistics are enabled (CONFIG_THERMAL_STATISTICS=y), as the
transition table is accessed with a too large index (state) [1].

According to the thermal maintainer, it is the responsibility of the
driver to reject such operations [2].

Therefore, return an error when the state to be set exceeds the maximum
cooling state supported by the driver.

To avoid dead code, as suggested by the thermal maintainer [3],
partially revert commit a421ce088ac8 ("mlxsw: core: Extend cooling
device with cooling levels") that tried to interpret these invalid
cooling states (above the maximum) in a special way. The cooling levels
array is not removed in order to prevent the fans going below 20% PWM,
which would cause them to get stuck at 0% PWM.
