Subject: [PATCH] ksmbd: prevent out-of-bounds reads in share config responses

Validate IPC share configuration payload sizes before consuming
variable-length fields. Bound veto list parsing and account for
the separator byte when deriving the path length.

Fixes: a677ebd8ca2f ("ksmbd: validate payload size in ipc response")
