Later during serial startup the\nqcom_geni_serial_port_setup() updates the RX FIFO depth\n(port->rx_fifo_depth) to match real device capabilities, e.g. to 32.\n\nThe RX UART handle code will read \"port->rx_fifo_depth\" number of words\ninto \"port->rx_fifo\" buffer, thus exceeding the bounds.  This can be\nobserved in certain configurations with Qualcomm Bluetooth HCI UART\ndevice and KASAN:\n\n  Bluetooth: hci0: QCA Product ID   :0x00000010\n  Bluetooth: hci0: QCA SOC Version  :0x400a0200\n  Bluetooth: hci0: QCA ROM Version  :0x00000200\n  Bluetooth: hci0: QCA Patch Version:0x00000d2b\n  Bluetooth: hci0: QCA controller version 0x02000200\n  Bluetooth: hci0: QCA Downloading qca/htbtfw20.tlv\n  bluetooth hci0: Direct firmware load for qca/htbtfw20.tlv failed with error -2\n  Bluetooth: hci0: QCA Failed to request file: qca/htbtfw20.tlv (-2)\n  Bluetooth: hci0: QCA Failed to download patch (-2)\n  ==================================================================\n  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in handle_rx_uart+0xa8/0x18c\n  Write of size 4 at addr ffff279347d578c0 by task swapper/0/0\n\n  CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.1.0-rt5-00350-gb2450b7e00be-dirty #26\n  Hardware name: Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.
