4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Michael Mera <dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit a16703aaeaedec7a8bee5be5522c7c3e75478951 ] During write to debugfs file simulate_fw_crash, fixed-size local buffer 'buf' is accessed and modified at index 'count-1', where 'count' is the size of the write (so potentially out of bounds). This patch fixes this problem.
