Subject: [PATCH v2 8/9] serial: sirf: Fix out-of-bounds access through DT alias

The sirf_ports[] array is indexed using a value derived from the
"serialN" alias in DT, which may lead to an out-of-bounds access.

Fix this by adding a range check.

Fixes: a6ffe8966acbb66b ("serial: sirf: use dynamic method allocate uart structure")
Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@...der.be>

v2:
  - Fix Fixes reference,
  - Use ARRAY_SIZE().
