nci_core_init_rsp_packet_v1() and nci_core_init_rsp_packet_v2() cast
skb->data to response structures and dereference fields without first
checking that skb->len is large enough. A malicious or malformed NFCC
can send a short response packet, causing an out-of-bounds read.
Add minimum length checks at the start of both functions. For v1, check
that at least sizeof(nci_core_init_rsp_1) bytes are available before
accessing rsp_1 fields, and validate the dynamic offset before accessing
rsp_2. For v2, check that at least sizeof(nci_core_init_rsp_nci_ver2)
bytes are available.
