The following commit has been merged into the x86/urgent branch of tip: Commit-ID: cbebd68f59f03633469f3ecf9bea99cd6cce3854 Gitweb: https://git.kernel.org/tip/cbebd68f59f03633469f3ecf9bea99cd6cce3854 Author: Nikita Zhandarovich <n.zhandarovich@xxxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Mon, 06 Mar 2023 08:06:56 -08:00 Committer: Borislav Petkov (AMD) <bp@xxxxxxxxx> CommitterDate: Thu, 16 Mar 2023 12:22:25 +01:00 x86/mm: Fix use of uninitialized buffer in sme_enable() cmdline_find_option() may fail before doing any initialization of the buffer array. This may lead to unpredictable results when the same buffer is used later in calls to strncmp() function. Fix the issue by returning early if cmdline_find_option() returns an error.
