Currently, kernel drivers are allowed to set arbitrary dimen information to control elements. The total number of channels calculated by the dimen information should be within the number of channels in the control element, while there's no validator. When userspace applications have quite simple implementation, this can cause buffer-over-run over struct snd_ctl_elem_value data.
This commit adds the validation. Unfortunately, the dimen information is set at runtime, thus the validation cannot run in advance.
As of Linux 4.1, there's no drivers to use the dimen information except for Echo Audio PCI cards. All of them already have valid dimen information. This patch doesn't cause any regressions.
Oops. This patch brings a bug for control elements added by Echo Audio PCI card drivers...
The drivers add 'Monitor Mixer Volume', 'VMixer Volume' and 'VU-meters' with dimen information. They have 'count = 1' except for the last one, even if the dimen information shows it has more elements in its matrix.
As long as seeing userspace application (echomixer), for these control elements, the count is ignored to process them. They just evaluate dimen information.
