[PATCH] add check to /proc/devices read routines
Patch to add check to get_chrdev_list and get_blkdev_list to prevent reads of /proc/devices from spilling over the provided page if more than 4096 bytes of string data are generated from all the registered character and block devices in a system Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@redhat.com> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: <viro@parcelfarce.linux.theplanet.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
