ALSA: hda_hwdep: Fix possible buffer overflow
If a line in the firmware file is larger than the given buffer size (and so the firmware file size), size is set to a value larger than the actual buffer size. This results in an overflow in the buffer passed. Signed-off-by: Alexander Stein <alexander.stein@systec-electronic.com> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
