A collection of fixes for pre-existing issues reported by sashiko-bot while
reviewing patches.
The v1 posting fixed a first batch of these issues, and v2 grew the set as
sashiko-bot's review surfaced more problems in the same CPER/extlog paths.
sashiko-bot's review of v2 flagged yet more of the same class of bug in
neighbouring code, so v3 adds those as well: an out-of-range section length
that defeats cper_estatus_check(), the same unvalidated AER buffer handling
in ghes_handle_aer() that was already fixed for extlog, and an unbounded
walk of the extlog record.
1/10: Bound the CXL event record copy to the firmware section length.
2/10: Reject CPER records with an out-of-range error_data_length.
3/10: Validate the CXL protocol error section length before the RAS cap copy.
4/10: Avoid populating software AER metadata from the raw hardware buffer.
5/10: Validate the PCIe error section length before payload access.
6/10: Fix the CONFIG_ACPI_APEI_PCIEAER guard typo in extlog.c.
7/10: Defer CXL protocol error handling to avoid a lock inversion.
8/10: Validate the memory error section length before payload access.
9/10: Bound the AER info copy and sanitize software metadata in ghes.c.
10/10: Validate the extlog record length before walking sections.
Note patch 2 touches drivers/firmware/efi/cper.c; it closes the length
validation hole at the shared choke point that the per-section guards in the
rest of the series rely on.
sashiko-bot's review of v2 also flagged a few related issues that are not
addressed here because they live in other subsystems.
- cxl_cper_print_prot_err() in drivers/firmware/efi/cper_cxl.c uses the
firmware-controlled dvsec_len without bounding it against the section
length.
- cxl_rch_get_aer_info() in drivers/cxl/core/ras_rch.c reads the RCH AER
capability from MMIO into a struct aer_capability_regs without clearing
the software-only header_len/flit fields, the same class of issue as
patches 4 and 9.

Changes since v2
----------------
- Dropped the standalone spin_lock_irqsave() change; it is a separate issue
being handled by Terry Bowman.
- New patch 2: reject a section whose error_data_length is out of range in
cper_estatus_check(), closing the signed-int overflow that let a crafted
section bypass the check and defeat the per-caller size guards (sashiko).
- New patch 9: apply the same AER buffer sanitization to ghes_handle_aer()
that patch 4 applies to extlog (sashiko).
- New patch 10: bound the extlog record and run cper_estatus_check() before
walking its sections, which extlog did not do (sashiko).
- Patch 8: move the memory error length check into ghes_do_proc() so the
report chain and arch reporter are covered too, and bound against the
older UEFI 2.1/2.2 layout rather than the full struct (sashiko).
- Reordered so the extlog PCIe path is hardened, and the CXL protocol error
handling is deferred to the workqueue, before the typo fix that activates
that code.
