Unless you are going to do all of the work necessary to fix the out-of-bounds condition here, you cannot safely continue into the rest of this function. Things are going to explode in many places if you don't, at a minimum, fix the 'count' value to be in range. But like others I don't like this, the driver needs to be fixed urgently if this condition triggers. Sorry I'm not applying this.
