Hi Sean,

Sorry for the bad logic. Let me organize my logic about these two
crashes and the underlying bug.

First, let's sync on the same page. In this thread, I would like to
prove to you guys these two crash reports share the same root cause -
they both miss the sanity check of the same field from user space.

Second, if you agree with the first point, let's move on. If we can
know the duplication information before, you and James Reynolds, who
fixes another crash at mceusb_handle_command do not need to analyze it
twice. And I think either your patch or the patch developed by James
Reynolds only fixes the crash reports at the failure point, without
completely fixing the underlying bug.

Please let me know if you have any questions about the above text.
Thanks in advance.
