Subject: [PATCH] remoteproc: qcom_q6v5_mss: Validate MBA firmware size before
load

The following mem abort is observed when the mba firmware size exceeds the allocated mba region. MBA firmware size is restricted to a maximum size of 1M and remaining memory region is used by modem debug policy firmware when available. Hence verify whether the MBA firmware size lies within the allocated memory region and is not greater than 1M before loading.

Err Logs:

Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address
