The size of buf[] must account for the string termination needed for the first strict_strtoul() call. Introduced in commit a02d6926. Fábio Olivé Leite points out that strict_strtoul() requires _either_ '\n\0' _or_ '\0' termination, so use the simpler '\0' here instead. See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14546 .

As far as I can tell, this issue was introduced in 2.6.32-rc and is not applicable for stable.
