That function already calls verify_container().

Let it stick out.

Ok, so above you do verify_patch_section() and then you take patch_size
without fully verifying it - it can be something non-sensically huge and
thus we might skip over good patches.

What you should do instead is call verify_patch() directly - which
already calls verify_patch_section() and if the patch size exceeds the
per-family maximum, return *that* instead and skip only the per family
maximum inside the buffer so that any patches following can get a chance
to get inspected.

For that you'll have to reshuffle the change of integrating
verify_patch_size() to happen before that change here.

Thx.
