Can't we just implement Deref here? Why do we need this indirection?

Please make this check when creating the structure...

...and make this a type invariant.

It should also be a type invariant that this does not overflow.

The same applies to NpdeStruct.

What's this magic offset and mask?

'+ 11'?

BiosImageBase declares this as "NVIDIA PCI Data Extension (optional)". If it's
really optional, why is this an error?

So, this returns None if it's a real error. This indicates that the return type
should just be Result<Option<Self>>.

Since this structure follows the builder pattern, can we please call it
FwSecBiosBuilder?

Why is this a TryFrom impl, instead of a regular constructor, i.e.
BiosImage::new()?

I don't think this is a canonical conversion.

Same here.

Please add a method FwSecBiosBuilder::build() that returns an instance of
FwSecBiosImage instead.
