Subject: [PATCH v2] HID: rmi: check sanity of the incoming report

From: Benjamin Tissoires <benjamin.tissoires@...hat.com>

In the Dell XPS 13 9333, it appears that sometimes the bus get confused
and corrupts the incoming data. It fills the input report with the
sentinel value "ff". Synaptics told us that such behavior does not comes
from the touchpad itself, so we filter out such reports here.

Unfortunately, we can not simply discard the incoming data because they
may contain useful information. Most of the time, the misbehavior is
quite near the end of the report, so we can still use the valid part of
it.

Here is a v2 based of Benjamin's patch with the feedback from the list.
I added size checks to rmi_f11_input_event and rmi_f30_input_event. For F30 I
print a message it any data is missing so that a user is notified if a button click
doesn't get reported. Also, I decided to only warn once if a corrupted report is
received. Based on the data I have seen I don't think dropped reports will be a
significanly noticible issue. But, I also added a debug message which could be turned on
if soneone wants to see exactly how often incomplete reports are being received.
