req_r820t wants a buffer with a size of 5 bytes, but the buffer 'buf' has a size of 2 bytes. This patch fixes the kernel oops with the r820t driver on old kernels during the probe stage. Successfully tested on a 2.6.32 32 bit kernel (Ubuntu 10.04). Hopefully it will also help with the random stability issues reported by some user on the linux-media list. This patch and https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2524651/ should go in the next 3.10-rc release, as they fix potential kernel crashes.
