Variable xyz.len is set to -1 on error. At the end xyzModem_stream_read() function calls memcpy() with length from variable xyz.len. If this variable is set to -1 then value passed to memcpy is casted to unsigned value, which means to copy whole address space. Which then cause U-Boot crash. E.g. on arm64 it cause CPU crash: "Synchronous Abort" handler, esr 0x96000006
Fix this issue by checking that value stored in xyz.len is valid prior trying to use it.
