The patch titled Subject: drivers/rapidio/devices/rio_mport_cdev.c: NUL terminate some strings has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was rapidio-mport_cdev-nul-terminate-some-strings.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: drivers/rapidio/devices/rio_mport_cdev.c: NUL terminate some strings The dev_info.name[] array has space for RIO_MAX_DEVNAME_SZ + 1 characters. But the problem here is that we don't ensure that the user put a NUL terminator on the end of the string. It could lead to an out of bounds read.
