4.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: David Sterba <dsterba@xxxxxxxx> commit 8eb934591f8bf584969454a658f629cd06e59f3a upstream. We don't verify that all the balance filter arguments supplemented by the flags are actually known to the kernel. Thus we let it silently pass and do nothing. At the moment this means only the 'limit' filter, but we're going to add a few more soon so it's better to have that fixed. Also in older stable kernels so that it works with newer userspace tools.
