    Subject[PATCH 4.14 030/148] staging/speakup: fix get_word non-space look-ahead
    Date
    From: Samuel Thibault <samuel.thibault@ens-lyon.org>

    commit 9d32c0cde4e2d1343dfb88a67b2ec6397705b32b upstream.

    get_char was erroneously given the address of the pointer to the text
    instead of the address of the text, thus leading to random crashes when
    the user requests speaking a word while the current position is on a space
    character and say_word_ctl is not enabled.
