That huge data_size defeats the\nlog_start/log_end bounds clamps added by commit dd1311bcf0e6 (\"accel/ivpu:\nAdd bounds checks for firmware log indices\"), so fw_log_print_lines() reads\nfar past the small real data region of the BO. A size of 0 also makes\nfw_log_from_bo() advance the offset by 0, causing the callers to loop\nforever on the same header.\n\nReject logs whose size is smaller than the header (which also rejects\nsize == 0)."
