Subject: [PATCH 1/2] printk_ringbuffer: Fix check of valid data size when blk_lpos overflows

The commit 67e1b0052f6bb8 ("printk_ringbuffer: don't needlessly wrap
data blocks around") allows to use the last 4 bytes of the ring buffer.

But the check for the @data_size was not properly updated in get_data().
It fails when "blk_lpos->next" overflows to "0". In this case:

  + is_blk_wrapped(data_ring, blk_lpos->begin, blk_lpos->next)
    returns "false" because it checks "blk_lpos->next - 1".

  + "blk_lpos->begin < blk_lpos->next" fails because "blk_lpos->next"
    is already 0.

  + is_blk_wrapped(data_ring, blk_lpos->begin + DATA_SIZE(data_ring),
    blk_lpos->next) returns "false" because "begin_lpos" is from
    the next wrap but "next_lpos - 1" is from the previous one.

As a result, get_data() triggers the WARN_ON_ONCE() for "Illegal
block description", for example:

Solve the problem by moving and fixing the sanity check. The problematic
if-else-if-else code will just distinguish three basic scenarios:
"regular" vs. "wrapped" vs. "too many times wrapped" block.

The new sanity check is more precise. A valid "data_size" must be
lower than half of the data buffer size. Also it must not be zero at
this stage. It allows to catch problematic "data_size" even for wrapped
blocks.
