Summary
i2c: imx: preserve error state in block data length handler
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

i2c: imx: preserve error state in block data length handler

When a block read returns an invalid length, zero or >I2CSMBUSBLOCKMAX, the length handler sets the state to IMXI2CSTATEFAILED. However, i2cimxmasterisr() unconditionally overwrites this with IMXI2CSTATEREAD_CONTINUE, causing an endless read loop that overruns buffers and crashes the system.

Guard the state transition to preserve error states set by the length handler.
