[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 5/7] powerpc/lib: Validate size for vector operations

From: Naveen N Rao <naveen at kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit 8f9abaa6d7de0a70fc68acaedce290c1f96e2e59 ]

Some of the fp/vmx code in sstep.c assume a certain maximum size for the
instructions being emulated. The size of those operations however is
determined separately in analyse_instr().

Add a check to validate the assumption on the maximum size of the
operations, so as to prevent any unintended kernel stack corruption.
