[PATCH 6.6 11/93] net/mlx5e: Fix validation logic in rate limiting

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

6.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Danielle Costantino <dcostantino@meta.com>

[ Upstream commit d2099d9f16dbfa1c5266d4230ff7860047bb0b68 ]

The rate limiting validation condition currently checks the output
variable max_bw_value[i] instead of the input value
maxrate->tc_maxrate[i]. This causes the validation to compare an
uninitialized or stale value rather than the actual requested rate.

The condition should check the input rate to properly validate against
the upper limit:

    } else if (maxrate->tc_maxrate[i] <= upper_limit_gbps) {

This aligns with the pattern used in the first branch, which correctly
checks maxrate->tc_maxrate[i] against upper_limit_mbps.

The current implementation can lead to unreliable validation behavior:

- For rates between 25.5 Gbps and 255 Gbps, if max_bw_value[i] is 0
  from initialization, the GBPS path may be taken regardless of whether
  the actual rate is within bounds

- When processing multiple TCs (i > 0), max_bw_value[i] contains the
  value computed for the previous TC, affecting the validation logic

- The overflow check for rates exceeding 255 Gbps may not trigger
  consistently depending on previous array values

This patch ensures the validation correctly examines the requested rate
value for proper bounds checking.
