Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
This vulnerability in the Linux kernel involves an issue in the habanalabs/gaudi component where a shift operation was performed out of bounds during the validation of NIC queues. Specifically, the queue offset calculation was incorrectly applied beyond NIC queues, which could lead to unexpected behavior or errors. The fix ensures that the queue offset calculation is only performed for NIC queues.
