Subject[patch 66/73] fix oops on rmmod capidrv
2.6.23-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Karsten Keil <kkeil@suse.de>
patch eb36f4fc019835cecf0788907f6cab774508087b in mainline.

Fix overwriting the stack with the version string
(it is currently 10 bytes + zero) when unloading the
capidrv module. Safeguard against overwriting it
should the version string grow in the future.

Should fix Kernel Bug Tracker Bug 9696.
