[PATCH] spl: ymodem: Fix buffer overflow during Image copy

ymodem_read_fit() driver will end copying up to BUF_SIZE boundary even
when requested size of copy operation is less than that.
For example, if offset = 0, size = 1440B, ymodem_read_fit() ends up
copying 2KB from offset = 0, to destination buffer addr

This causes data corruption when malloc'd buffer is passed during UART
boot since commit 03f1f78a9b44 ("spl: fit: Prefer a malloc()'d buffer
for loading images")

With this, UART boot works again on K3 (AM654, J7, AM64) family of
devices.

Fixes: 03f1f78a9b44 ("spl: fit: Prefer a malloc()'d buffer for loading images")
