Subject[PATCH 3.13.y-ckt 65/78] remoteproc: avoid stack overflow in debugfs file
Date
3.13.11-ckt32 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

commit 92792e48e2ae6051af30468a87994b5432da2f06 upstream.

Recent gcc versions warn about reading from a negative offset of
an on-stack array:

drivers/remoteproc/remoteproc_debugfs.c: In function 'rproc_recovery_write':
drivers/remoteproc/remoteproc_debugfs.c:167:9: warning: 'buf[4294967295u]' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]

I don't see anything in sys_write() that prevents us from
being called with a zero 'count' argument, so we should
add an extra check in rproc_recovery_write() to prevent the
access and avoid the warning.
