commit ea1c71de56fb2799da9d6f26778c7ddf5f42c4a3 Author: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz> Date: Tue Oct 25 11:53:31 2011 +1030
kmod: prevent kmod_loop_msg overflow in __request_module() Due to post-increment in condition of kmod_loop_msg in __request_module(), the system log can be spammed by much more than 5 instances of the 'runaway loop' message if the number of events triggering it makes the kmod_loop_msg to overflow. Fix that by making sure we never increment it past the threshold. Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> CC: stable@kernel.org

commit 14377d658e711ef2301db023370aeaa48a466401 Author: Michal Schmidt <mschmidt@redhat.com> Date: Mon Oct 10 00:03:37 2011 +0200
params: make dashes and underscores in parameter names truly equal The user may use "foo-bar" for a kernel parameter defined as "foo_bar". Make sure it works the other way around too. Apply the equality of dashes and underscores on early_params and __setup params as well. The example given in Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt indicates that this is the intended behaviour. With the patch the kernel accepts "log-buf-len=1M" as expected. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=744545 Signed-off-by: Michal Schmidt <mschmidt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> (neatened implementations)
