4.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 4ab3c51e0540ba8464fe34d84cc35821bb77ae92 upstream. The kstrtol() function returns -ERANGE as well as -EINVAL so these tests are not enough. It's not a super serious bug, but my static checker correctly complains that the "r" variable might be used uninitialized.
