Subject: [PATCH v2 4/9] serial: mxs-auart: Fix out-of-bounds access through serial port index

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

Fix this by adding a range check.

Fixes: 1ea6607d4cdc9179 ("serial: mxs-auart: Allow device tree probing")
Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@...der.be>

v2:
  - Fix Fixes reference,
  - Use ARRAY_SIZE(),
  - Update patch description for platform data.
