syzbot reported an out-of-bound access in em_nbyte. As initially
analyzed by Eric, this is because em_nbyte sets its own em->datalen
in em_nbyte_change() other than the one specified by user, but this
value gets overwritten later by its caller tcf_em_validate().
We should leave em->datalen untouched to respect their choices.
I audit all the in-tree ematch users, all of those implement
->change() set em->datalen, so we can just avoid setting it twice
in this case.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
