3.16.56-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 9de29eac8d2189424d81c0d840cd0469aa3d41c8 upstream.
If i == ARRAY_SIZE(mitigation_options) then we accidentally print
garbage from one space beyond the end of the mitigation_options[] array.
