In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: usb: cdc_ncm: add ndpoffset to NDP32 nframes bounds check

The same bounds-check bug fixed for NDP16 in the previous patch also
exists in cdc_ncm_rx_verify_ndp32(). The DPE array size is validated
against the total skb length without accounting for ndpoffset, allowing
out-of-bounds reads when the NDP32 is placed near the end of the NTB.

Add ndpoffset to the nframes bounds check and use struct_size_t() to
express the NDP-plus-DPE-array size more clearly.

Compile-tested only.
