misc: nsm: bound the device-reported response length

nsm_sendrecv_msg_locked() stores the virtqueue used-ring length reported
by the NSM device into msg->resp.len without bounding it to the response
buffer. A malicious or buggy backend can report a length larger than the
response buffer; parse_resp_raw() then copies that many bytes out of the
fixed buffer to user space, disclosing adjacent kernel heap (an
out-of-bounds read). The request path already floors its length in
fill_req_raw(); the response path lacks the symmetric check.

Clamp the stored length to the size of the response buffer. Well-behaved
devices report no more than the posted buffer size, so conforming traffic
is unaffected.
