[PATCH 0/5] USB: serial: garmin_gps: fixes and clean ups

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



A recent timer API change brought my attention to this old gem of a
driver which has been suffering from some error-handling bugs that would
allow a malicious device to trigger a crash.

Given the nature of the problem and the fact that it's been around since
forever (i.e. pre-git), I don't think there's any rush to get this fixed
and I therefore intend to apply all of these for -next.

Also note that this series has been compile tested only.
