PATCH 1/1 tool/hcidump: Fix memory leak with malformed packet

Do not allow to read more than allocated data buffer size. Because of the buffer is malloc(HCI_MAX_FRAME_SIZE),
so there is heap buffer overflow if read the size more than HCI_MAX_FRAME_SIZE and fd size is larger than HCI_MAX_FRAME_SIZE.
