Subject: [PATCH 3.18 167/185] serial: xuartps: Fix out-of-bounds access through DT alias

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@...der.be>

[ Upstream commit e7d75e18d0fc3f7193b65282b651f980c778d935 ]

The cdns_uart_port[] 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.
