msm: perf: Protect buffer overflow due to malicious user
In function krait_pmu_disable_event, parameter hwc comes from
userspace and is untrusted.The function krait_clearpmu is called
after the function get_krait_evtinfo.
Function get_krait_evtinfo as parameter krait_evt_type variable
which is used to extract the groupcode(reg) which is bound to
KRAIT_MAX_L1_REG (is 3). After validation,one code path modifies
groupcode(reg):If this code path executes, groupcode(reg) can be
3,4, 5, or 6. In krait_clearpmu groupcode used to access array
krait_functions whose size is 3. Since groupcode can be 3,4,5,6
accessing array krait_functions lead to bufferoverlflow.
This change will validate groupcode not to exceed 3.
