commit fec4d42724a1bf3dcba52307e55375fdb967b852 upstream.

intel_dp_check_mst_status() uses a 14-byte array to read the DPRX Event
Status Indicator data, but then passes that buffer at offset 10 off as
an argument to drm_dp_channel_eq_ok().

End result: there are only 4 bytes remaining of the buffer, yet
drm_dp_channel_eq_ok() wants a 6-byte buffer.  gcc-11 correctly warns
about this case:

  drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_dp.c: In function ‘intel_dp_check_mst_status’:
  drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_dp.c:3491:22: warning: ‘drm_dp_channel_eq_ok’ reading 6 bytes from a region of size 4 [-Wstringop-overread]

        |      ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This commit just extends the original array by 2 zero-initialized bytes,
avoiding the warning.

There may be some underlying bug in here that caused this confusion, but
this is at least no worse than the existing situation that could use
random data off the stack.
