[PATCH v4 4/5] mtd: rawnand: brcmnand: Fix potential out-of-bounds access in oob write

When the oob buffer length is not in multiple of words, the oob write
function does out-of-bounds read on the oob source buffer at the last
iteration. Fix that by always checking length limit on the oob buffer
read and fill with 0xff when reaching the end of the buffer to the oob
registers.

Changes in v4:
- Add comments in the write_oob_to_regs function
- Add cc stable tag

Changes in v3:
- Fix kernel test robot sparse warning:
   drivers/mtd/nand/raw/brcmnand/brcmnand.c:1500:54: sparse: expected unsigned int [usertype] data
   drivers/mtd/nand/raw/brcmnand/brcmnand.c:1500:54: sparse: got restricted __be32 [usertype]

Changes in v2:
- Handle the remaining unaligned oob data after the oob data write loop
