I run a test with the below commit, because the next commit of it is
my first commit to binutils.

commit 2e6be59c8de57c32260771ac5307968d18793a0a (HEAD -> xxxxx)

    Stop an illegal memory access by readelf when parsing a corrupt
MIPS binary file.

            PR 24837
            * readelf.c (process_mips_specific): Check for buffer overflow
            before reading reginfo information.

The test fails do exist with this commit.

So I think that it is a long time problem, and in fact my recent
commits resolve them.

I will resend my patchset, of course with more code style checks.
