From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== commit 5ed8d41023751bdd3546f2fe4118304357efe8d2 upstream. Make sure to detect short control transfers and return zero on success when retrieving the modem status. This fixes the TIOCMGET implementation which since e1ed212d8593 ("USB: spcp8x5: add proper modem-status support") has returned TIOCM_LE on successful retrieval, and avoids leaking bits from the stack on short transfers. This also fixes the carrier-detect implementation which since the above mentioned commit unconditionally has returned true.
