HID: amd_sfh: Fix for shift-out-of-bounds
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: amd_sfh: Fix for shift-out-of-bounds Shift operation of 'exp' and 'shift' variables exceeds the maximum number of shift values in the u32 range leading to UBSAN shift-out-of-bounds. ...
