dev_ioctl: copy only the smaller struct iwreq for wext (2017-06-14 13:52:44 +0200)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Here's just the fix for that ancient bug:
* remove wext calling ndo_do_ioctl, since nobody needs
that now and it makes the type change easier
* use struct iwreq instead of struct ifreq almost everywhere
in wireless extensions code
* copy only struct iwreq from userspace in dev_ioctl for the
wireless extensions, since it's smaller than struct ifreq
----------------------------------------------------------------
Johannes Berg (3):
wireless: wext: remove ndo_do_ioctl fallback
wireless: wext: use struct iwreq earlier in the call chain
dev_ioctl: copy only the smaller struct iwreq for wext
