[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.14 3/3] ARM: findbit: fix overflowing offset

From: "Russell King (Oracle)" <rmk+kernel at armlinux.org.uk>

[ Upstream commit ec85bd369fd2bfaed6f45dd678706429d4f75b48 ]

When offset is larger than the size of the bit array, we should not
attempt to access the array as we can perform an access beyond the
end of the array. Fix this by changing the pre-condition.

Using "cmp r2, r1; bhs ..." covers us for the size == 0 case, since
this will always take the branch when r1 is zero, irrespective of
the value of r2. This means we can fix this bug without adding any
additional code!
