[PATCH] media: cec: core: remove length check of Timer Status

Dear Nini,

Unfortunately I forgot to add a 'Fixes' tag to the patch, if I had, then it would
have happened automatically.

Please remind me of this once kernel 6.9-rc1 is released since that will contain
the fix. Then I can post the same patch to the stable mailinglist for inclusion in
older kernels.

It has to wait until 6.9-rc1 is release though, patches need to be in mainline first
before they can be backported.

Regards,

	Hans
