Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

HID: amd_sfh: Validate PCI BAR size before mapping

The amd_sfh driver maps PCI BAR 2 using pcim_iomap_regions() and
subsequently accesses MMIO registers at offsets up to 0x10958 (e.g.,
AMD_P2C_MSG3 at 0x1068C). However, the driver never validates that the BAR
size is large enough to cover these accesses. If the driver is bound to a
device with a smaller BAR 2, this leads to an out-of-bounds memory access
and a page fault during the probe function.

For example, a page fault can occur when reading from privdata->mmio +
AMD_P2C_MSG3 in mp2_select_ops():

Fix this by verifying that the length of BAR 2 is at least 128KB before
attempting to map it. Since the maximum accessed offset is 0x10958, and PCI
BAR sizes are powers of 2, any legitimate hardware will have a BAR size of
at least 128KB.
