[Qemu-stable] [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] fw_cfg: fix memory corruption when all fw_cfg slots are used

[Marcel Apfelbaum]

When all the fw_cfg slots are used, a write is made outside the
bounds of the fw_cfg files array as part of the sort algorithm.

Fix it by avoiding an unnecessary array element move.
Fix also an assert while at it.
