Under certain conditions, Cadence's I2C controller's transfer_size register will roll over and generate invalid read transactions. Before this change, the ISR relied solely on the RXDV bit to determine when to write more data to the user's buffer. The invalid read data would cause overruns, smashing stacks and worse. This change stops the buffer writes to the requested boundary and reports the error. The controller will be reset so normal transactions may resume.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
