Sorry, it happens at:

cros_ec_query_all -> cros_ec_proto_info -> ... -> cros_ec_pkt_xfer_lpc

        /* Read response and process checksum */
        ret = fwk_ec_lpc_ops.read(EC_LPC_ADDR_HOST_PACKET +
                                   sizeof(response), response.data_len,
                                                     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                                   msg->data);
