Subject: isdn/i4l: fix buffer overflow
From: Annie Cherkaev <annie.cherk@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 9f5af546e6acc30f075828cb58c7f09665033967 upstream.
This fixes a potential buffer overflow in isdn_net.c caused by an
unbounded strcpy.
[ ISDN seems to be effectively unmaintained, and the I4L driver in
particular is long deprecated, but in case somebody uses this..
- Linus ]
