staging: gs_fpgaboot: add buffer overflow checks
Four fields in struct fpgaimage are char arrays of length MAX_STR (256). The amount of data read into these buffers is controlled by a length field in the bitstream file read from userspace. If a corrupt or malicious firmware file was supplied, kernel data beyond these buffers can be overwritten arbitrarily. This patch adds a check of the bitstream's length value to ensure it fits within the bounds of the allocated buffers. An error condition is returned from gs_read_bitstream if any of the reads fail.
