i2c: core-smbus: prevent stack corruption on read I2C_BLOCK_DATA



On a I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA read request, if data->block[0] is
greater than I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX + 1, the underlying I2C driver writes
data out of the msgbuf1 array boundary.

It is possible from a user application to run into that issue by
calling the I2C_SMBUS ioctl with data.block[0] greater than
I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX + 1.

This patch makes the code compliant with
Documentation/i2c/dev-interface by raising an error when the requested
size is larger than 32 bytes.
