Subject: [PATCH 4.14 057/185] leds: leds-lp5562 allow firmware files up to the maximum length

From: Nick Stoughton <nstoughton@...itech.com>

[ Upstream commit ed2abfebb041473092b41527903f93390d38afa7 ]

Firmware files are in ASCII, using 2 hex characters per byte. The
maximum length of a firmware string is therefore

16 (commands) * 2 (bytes per command) * 2 (characters per byte) = 64

Fixes: ff45262a85db ("leds: add new LP5562 LED driver")
