Re: [PATCH] platform/x86: intel_pmc_core: Fix potential buffer overflows

It looks like pmc_core_get_low_power_modes() mixes up modes and
priorities. In addition to invalid behavior, potentially this can
cause buffer overflows since the driver reads priorities from the
register and then it uses them as indexes for array lpm_priority
that can contain 8 elements at most. The patch swaps modes and
priorities.

Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
Seems legit.

I would write it as + 0, but up to you and maintainers.
