Hi,
While trying to adjust the keyboard backlight mode, I hit this BUG:

I couldn't pinpoint the exact user copy call that triggers it:
(gdb) list *wmi_ioctl+0x85/0x190
0xffffffff81be9470 is in wmi_ioctl (drivers/platform/x86/wmi.c:816).
811 &wblock->req_buf_size,
812 sizeof(wblock->req_buf_size));
813 }
814
815 static long wmi_ioctl(struct file *filp, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg)
816 {
817 struct wmi_ioctl_buffer __user *input =
818 (struct wmi_ioctl_buffer __user *) arg;
819 struct wmi_block *wblock = filp->private_data;
820 struct wmi_ioctl_buffer *buf = NULL;
I have attached my kernel config.
