Pending analysis

Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
ksmbd: replace hardcoded hdr2_len with offsetof() in smb2_calc_max_out_buf_len()<br />
<br />
After this commit (e2b76ab8b5c9 "ksmbd: add support for read compound"),<br />
response buffer management was changed to use dynamic iov array.<br />
In the new design, smb2_calc_max_out_buf_len() expects the second<br />
argument (hdr2_len) to be the offset of ->Buffer field in the<br />
response structure, not a hardcoded magic number.<br />
Fix the remaining call sites to use the correct offsetof() value.
