I made too much simplified the original code. So I'll change these lines to be size_t size = min_t(size_t, session->resp_size, session->bufsize); ret = simple_read_from_buffer(buff, count, ppos, session->response, size); -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-s390" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
