[PATCH 08/10] staging: bcm2835-camera: Fix buffer overflow calculation on query of camera properties

The code that queries properties on the camera has a check
for buffer overruns if the firmware sends too much data. This
check is incorrect, and during testing I was seeing stack corruption.
I believe this error can actually happen in normal use, just for
some reason it doesn't appear on 32 bit as often. So perhaps
it's best for the check to be fixed.
