Subject: USB: cxacru: potential underflow in cxacru_cm_get_array()

commit 2a0ebf80aa95cc758d4725f74a7016e992606a39 upstream.

The value of "offd" comes off the instance->rcv_buf[] and we used it as
the offset into an array.  The problem is that we check the upper bound
but not for negative values.
