Since
commit 86d37bf31af6 ("media: i2c: max9286: Allocate v4l2_async_subdev dynamically")
the async subdevice registered to the max9286 notifier is dynamically
allocated by the v4l2 framework by using the
v4l2_async_notifier_add_fwnode_subdev() function. In order to allocate
enough space for max9286_asd structure that encloses the async subdevice
paired with a pointer to the corresponding source, pass to the framework
the size of the whole structure in place of the one of the enclosed async
subdev.

Does 'Since' really need it's own line ;-)

A newline before 'In order to' would be nice to split 'what happened'
from 'what is going to happen'. Oh, in fact it doesn't describe what
happened though...

for "the" max9286_asd...

That's quite hard to parse though, and I don't think describing the
contents of max9286_asd really matters here?

How about:

Since commit 86d37bf31af6 ("media: i2c: max9286: Allocate
v4l2_async_subdev dynamically") the async subdevice registered to the
max9286 notifier is dynamically allocated by the v4l2 framework by using
the v4l2_async_notifier_add_fwnode_subdev() function, but provides an
incorrect size, potentially leading to incorrect memory accesses.

Allocate enough space for the driver specific max9286_asd structure
(which contains the async subdevice) by passing the size of the correct
structure.

The code is fine though, so with any commit message updates you deem
necessary:

If you don't want to break the following one (which I understand is
better on a single line) yes

Ok, better than mine, I'll take it in.
