If a user provides a buffer larger than a tty->write_buf chunk and passes '\r' at the end of the buffer, we touch an out-of-bound memory. Add a check there to prevent this.

commit ee8b593affdf893012e57f4c54a21984d1b0d92e upstream.

If a user provides a buffer larger than a tty->write_buf chunk and
passes '\r' at the end of the buffer, we touch an out-of-bound memory.

Add a check there to prevent this.
