The process_sysctl_arg() does not check whether val is empty before invoking strlen(val). If the command line parameter () is incorrectly configured and val is empty, oops is triggered. For example, "hung_task_panic=1" is incorrectly written as "hung_task_panic". log: Kernel command line: .... hung_task_panic ....
